This is now my go-to tire
Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sport
http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....za+RE760+Sport
Doesn't cost an arm and a leg and is plenty grippy for street use
I have run way more expensive tires like the MPSS and have found that the RE760's have similar grip levels and so far have been wearing well anything more
expensive is just overkill IMO
