Tyre question with a difference

[docwalker]

Hi Folks

I am currently doing over 20k miles a year, asa result I am going through tyres very quickly. It is nearly time to replace the fronts again

I replaced the original Contis with some Dunlop SP2000e, not a bad tyre a little smoother and quieter but no where near as crisp.

I have read with interest in the tyre poll and most people seem to recommend the F1 or Exaltos's. What are people experiences with wear with these tyres.

Cheers

had 26k out of my last set of front exalto's, can fault them really

Edit: Thats on a mk1 172

I'm on 8500k and my front exaltos will need changing within the next 1000k.
