I had some Bridgestone Turanzas on a 1995 9000 that I liked. Good handling and grip, good in wet, quiet and nice ride on interstate. The car got run into before I had them on six months so don't know about durability. Really like the Pirelli Pzeros I've got on the 1997 900. Very nice ride, quiet, wonderful in rain and good handling but only a week old so no info on how long they'll last. Even though you can't buy there, go to tirerack.com and look at the reader survey on the different tires. I've found those to be an excellent guide to how tires perform in the real world.
