Best kind to buy people????

No cheap pish budget crap, need to replace the standard Continentals
( 205/50/16 size)

Got 20k out of the Contis - quite impressed by them, any have any experience of Avon ZV3s or Pirelli P6000s??

I do like Toyos but they wear fast and I do a lot of miles.

Any advice appreciated

i've got the zv3's. i got them because some previous zz3's were awesome.
i'm a little disappointed because they weren't as good as their bigger brothers, but they are decent in wet and dry.

i would try something else next time i think,

Toyo's are shite.

5k they lasted me and one of them was buldging ready to blow out.

Didn't grip too well either.
