Well, I finally needed to put on some new tires. I managed 8900 miles on my old set of Metzler M3's. After reading all the reviews, I opted for the Conti Road Attacks. I've only put about 100 miles on so far, but I likey. These tires seem to beg to be laid down in the corners. Little odd at first, but really feel comfortable with them now. Much better cornering than with the Metzlers.
