shocked no one mentioned michelin pilot sport 4S yet, those are peak performance tires. they also have good wet performance too, despite being summer tires.
I try to get safer tires, which are often performance tires. Less concerned with longevity, more concerned with emergency stopping distance. Michelin Pilot Sport AS4
Michelin CrossClimate2. They are snow and ice rated, can be driven all year round, have good handling, and will last you 60,000 miles easily. I’m on my second set. They work well in snow and ice.
Michelin's Cross Climate 2 is the current gold standard for All-Weather tires, are very capable and can last upwards of 40k miles.
I would recommend Michelin CrossClimate 3 if you're willing/able to afford them. They are the best all-rounder tyre available in the UK right now
When it comes to performance Bridgestone > Hankook > Barum.
Honestly you want the Pilot power 5's. I get over 5k miles on mine easy! And I ride really hard as far as riding goes. Cannot recommended them enough!
Road 6s will definitely make your bike feel planted. Well they do on mine. Definitely got more trust in leaning in and pressing more on surfaces where I normally sketch out.
I have them on my 23 Forester and wish I had went with a different tire but that's simply my personal situation. The CC2 isn't a bad tire by any means. I've drove with them in our last snow storm which ended up dumping 6 inches and they didn't lose traction unless I made it and even then they'd recover traction within 2 seconds if I wasn't hooning it. My main reason for wanting something like the Defender 2 series is thr mpg hit my forester took. I went from about 34 - 35 mpg down to barely able to sustain 30mpg and easily sitting between 28-29 mpg now.
I had to explain to an Iranian last night what a heat ring is on his Michelin that was on his 6 yr 20k mile RX that he bought last year from...gulp, CARMAX
