Road

These are very good roads tires meant to handle all types of roads, and they have really good water dispersion. This is the list of the 99% road riding.

  • Pirelli Diablo
  • Michelin Pilot Power
  • Dunlop Qualifier

Sport Road

These tires are extremely good road tires, but leaning towards good track usage as well. These are really good in the rain and higher end of tires.

  • PIrelli Diablo Corsa III
  • Pirelli Supercorsa Pro Street
  • Bridgestone BT-002 Racing Street
  • Michelin Pilot Power 2CT
  • Metzeler Sportec M3

Track

These tires are meant to be used on a track, and handle track usage. They need tire warmers, and some of them dont have good water dispersion. They need to be warmed up, so on the road they would remain pretty hard and wouldnt have good grip on the road because it takes so long for them to warm up. They are the perfect attackers for the track.

  • Dunlop 209GP

The ones in bold are the ones I have been using on the bikes I have ridden and I couldnt recommend them enough. I have ridden some of these tires in the rain and hard on the moutain roads. My trust has grown greatly in these tires, and I probably wont reach their limits since they are very good.
