Default When rubber meets the road

I need to pick up some new tires for my bike and i do not
have a bunch of money to spend on them either.
Where is a good place to shop at online and
what is a good brand that wont break the bank.
I have heard bad things about shinko tires so i do
not want to get those even though they are cheap.

i loved my pirelli diablos that were on my bike. tread wear was really good on them, they stuck to the road enough to get a knee down and they are relatively cheap. (from my localshop it cost me total like...180 to get the tire and get it mounted..thats the rear. front was cheaper. Thats them pulling it for an extra $20 too...)

I roll Michelin Pilot Roads. Awesome traction even in the rain and you can even knee drag on them. Theyre supposed to last about 20k miles. Look to spend about $280 pluts mount for both

I have been looking at the pilot roads also. Mainly for mileage reasons. I ride my bike all the time. So they have good grip also? thats great. I am still learning so I prob. wont use them to their max anyway.
