Tashfeen,
Avon Tyres are now made by the US Cooper Tire Company which has a very good reputation for quality tires. When Firestone SUV tires had such a problem, Cooper tires were considered one of the better replacements. My experience with the MXV4s on my 9-5 was that they wore evenly and were long lasting. They did get harder and in the extreme monsoon weather here in Florida, they were terrible. Saudi is not like Florida other than the humidity. You probably have seen Avon tyres in Saudi but no Coopers. Avon was the premier UK tire company for many years before Cooper bought them out. Their tires were used on all the high end UK cars such Rolls.
