I need a little assistance on a good street tire to get. I recently put Michelin Pilot Powers on my bike and although the performance was great the wore pretty quickly. I put them on in May and I'm already looking to replace them. I put maybe 8000 miles on them if that.
I was told by a few people that pilot powers are a good track tire that can be used on the street. I think I need a tire with more a slant towards street riding then track. Don't get me wrong I love canyon carving when I can I occasionally will speed a little (ok way more then a little bit) when coming back from work late.
But I can't afford to replace tires every 6000-8000 miles. So since it seems pilot powers are the only tire that people tend to want on this site, I want know is out there that will wear a little better for everyday street use. Something that has a little better wear characteristics in the middle of the tire (since thats where the bike see's most of its duties.
Thanks in advance.
