tires ! no joke

so the PS2's on the front are finally due for a replacement. where as 2 yrs ago i saw quite a few options to replace the front 205-55-17 with other brands, now when i look the only exact replacements are either conti or mich, the rears will be due in about 10k km as well. so i was hoping to get something for street use with better wear life. the PS2's have been good but worn off fast

all the options would now force me to go to a 205-50-17 for the front if i don't do the michelin, this means slightly small and reduced life, could also affect speedo pickup if on the front

were is the speedo pickup? front or back?

i would really like to be able to consider a yokohama, or kuhmo or hankook or bridgestone

what say you...? any recommendations for longer street life
