+1 Life long PR2/3/4 fan but in the last year moved to Roadtec01 and the feel for me is a lot better, longevity maybe +10% Peter

Michelin PR4 GT by far but you need a few more pounds of air to get maximum tire mileage.

Metzeler Roadtec 01s. Great handling in wet or dry. 6000 miles ‘making progress’ on them so far with plenty of tread left.  Didn’t like the 8s at all.
