Okay....without this turning into an oil thread kinda thing, what do you recommend for a darkside tire and front tire?

I've got Elite III's on right now...and I lilke them.  But, I'm thinking down the road when these wear out, and I'm contemplateing a trip to the Darkside. 

What C/T do you guys like....Yokohama, Goodyear...what?  And what front are you recommending using with a C/T?  What size and model C/T do I need.....and what pressure are you supposed to put in there? 

Bike is a '97 Red & White Standard.

But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to

Better to be judged by 12, then carried by 6.

Hankook K-106 with Metz front. Only tires I've had. I found very little diff in the ct rear vs my old 200 metz rear.

Goodyear Triple Tread 205-60 and a Metz front. I have a Cobra front
now and it's OK, but not quite as good as the Metz, IMHO. Might
last longer than the Metz.
