I had Bridgestone Potenza RE930's on my Audi Coupe GT (185-60-14). They were great. They cruised quietly and worked great in dry cornering. Also, at least the first winter I was driving circles around 4 wheel drive vehicles in snow. SUPER.
In the 185 size I'm currently running Bridgestone Potenza RE92's - a little bit more money, but great grip (especially in the rain) and good tread life so far.
Dunlop SP 8000s 195/55-zr14. I love them. Do not use in the snow, though.
I second the D60/A2 vote...Dunlop just updated the design..the new name is sport A2 or something like that...haven't tried those new treads yet. These are all season though...is that what you want?
I'd recommed the Dunlop A2/60's in a 185/60R14 (obviously).. they handle well, last a long time (if you rotate them every 5000 miles or so), and they don't cost an arm and a leg..
Love the 730's. Excellent wear so far. Grip hard in dry, good sense of road, good directional stability, very responsive, very good in wet. I have yet to find them hydroplaning
I have ridden on Bridgestone 730's for the past 35,000 miles, and the tires still have decent tread left on them. They still handle surprisingly well for a tire with such mileage on them.
I'll be putting on my Dunlop Winter Sport M2's in the next few weeks for the 3rd snow season and would echo INDIGO's points. I've been slightly disappointed on the snow performance as I've found quite a bit of understeer with these tires in snow.
After this mornings hellish commute in this monsoon, I am having second thoughts about the Bridgestone RE950's. This is coming upon the end of my first summer with these tires and they are getting scary in the rain. I drove the hell out of the OEM Michelins until they would hydroplane at 40mph. These Bridgestones are wearing much faster than I thought. The dry road handling is still terrific, but wet weather leaves a bit to be desired.
I heard they sucked from the tire guy, so he sold me sp8k's...which I LOVE.
