Got Pirelli P Zero Rossas on mine, but they wont be  cheap to replace when the time comes.

Prices for your size start at around £40 new of ebay and go as high as you like, its down to personal  taste and budget mate

Michelin Energy Saver: quiet and durable. Nothing else comes close, especially those Italian uneconomical and noisy ones! But that's one man's advice of course!

Have you considered dropping to a 50% profile? Precious little difference in size but can be quite a bit cheaper in some cases. I had uniroyal rainsports a couple of years ago and they had superb grip wet and dry, though cant realy comment on wear as I only did 4k with them on, seemed ok though.

ebay is your best bet.
but sometimes you can get good offers at likes of kwik fit, ie 30% off for 4.
