Which brand and model

[tjroux]

Now, what BRAND of tire should i go with and what model

I'd say i do about 30% twisties (60mph+) and 70% in town riding

I want something thats going to last 6-10k miles (my avons lasted 4k)

Want a decent looking tread, no straight lines down the middle of the tire (first set of tires were kind of squirley with the center line)

Looking at the Metz M3 tires.... any thoughts?

The only tires I have used other then the stock Crapadams, are the Pirelli Diablo Stradas. I have put close to 7K miles on them so far (rear will need replacing this season), but I am very happy with them so far.

Only tires I've had on mine so far were the Bridgestone Battleax BT42's and I wouldn't recommend them to anyone. They ride nice and smooth, and handled fine in the turns, never slipped or felt funny in the twisties or at high speeds, but I don't think I've ever got more than about 3,000 miles out of one.
