As far as the polls go, I don't know if they will remain useful overtime. Unless it gets purged, it wont reflect current trends, or the trends over time. For instance, if someone comes into this thread a year or two from now, and the new hotness is a Bridgestone tire, but the poll indicates that the Dunlop and the Hankook are still the favorite tire due to what people have been running for the last year, they have been mislead by data that is no longer relevant. Of course digging into these threads will reflect what is going on, but I think that they could be counterproductive.

I do like the idea of the polls, since it's immediately useable information, but if it's not accurate, that's an issue. Perhaps the first post in each of these threads could be a summary or reflection of the current trends, and the moderator having the ability to update it periodically as major things happen - like when a new tire becomes the tire to have.
