Good Economic Tire?

Hi, I come from a motorcycle world, so I don't really know tire for theses cars.

I am looking for a tire that grips okay but that I will do a good mileage of, and that dos'nt cost too much. I am not a racer so I don't care don't having Track tires..

I am looking for tire on my boxster, tire that I won't need to replace too often, that will grip enough for everyday fun driving without being the best of the line.

What are your suggestions?


Example in the motorcycle world, Michelin Pilote Race is tire that burn out really too fast but they are really good tire for track days or really hard road driving. but they are to slow to heat up and wears up too fast for everyday tire. Michelin Pilote Power (the successor of Michelin pilote Sport) is a Great tire, that give a pretty god mileage and stick pretty well. but for mileage advantage, we often recommend the Batlax, that is a little but closer to a sport touring tire.

I wear Michelin Pilote Power on my bike (or find a good deal on used Tracks tire in hot summer days) but I am looking for something more comparable to Batlax for my car.

I don't need to have as good tire on my boxster that on my bike because I won't ride it as hard..

If you have any suggestion, link, or other thread, I would be fery apprecieated


Thanks
