Look into the Firestone Firehawk Indy 500
These tires look like the RE11 the Bridgestone makes. Bridgestone had purchased Firestone a while back. Very inexpensive and have decent rating through Tirerack.
I purchased a set a few weeks back and will be putting them on in a month or so.

Hey guys....Just wanted thank everyone again. I ordered the Michelins from Tire Rack and had them installed last Monday. I am so please, already, with the performance of these tires over the OEM's. The steering is lighter and the feedback is so much more. They are quite and the ride is smooth and it instills more cornering confidence at a "spirited" pace.

I noticed the same thing when I replaced the OEM Dunlops on my 2010 FZ1 Yamaha with Michelin tires and it made a night & day difference too. I am a Michelin believer!

Thanks again for the help
