After much thought, and many years (decades) of experience, I switched from Metzeler to Shinko. The rear lasts as long as the Metzeler (about 12,000 miles) and so does the front (around 20,000) but the price is about half of what the Metzelers cost. The ride is very good, as is the wet weather traction. There is one major difference, other than price. The profile of the Shinko is more rounded, and at first, it feels like you have power steering, until you get used to it. Just put on a new rear 777 last week, the front is still good for another year. By the way, using the FACTORY recommended inflation pressure gave me the best performance. The one I replaced still has 2/32 of and inch of tread after 11,670 miles.

I need new shoes - what kind of tires are you guys using?
What do you recommend and also not recommend and why?
Sorry I did not see this discussion although I am sure it has been gone over before!
Cheers
