best tyres for winter riding

[danpie]

hi, the time has come to change my tyres from the pretty naff D220s that i have at the min. i use my bike to commute so i need something with a bit longevity, but also good grip and feel, due to it being pretty wet and cold at the min.
i've had a price for D207s fitted for £185 all in, but they can do a deal for me on any dunlop or pirelli tyres.
what would you guys recommend?
cheers,
dan

currently I am running Pirelli MTR60shttp://www.mawonline.com/photos/pirelli_mt60_tire_rr.gif
but I am going to try the Pirelli Scorpion Sync Sport/Motard Tire

Last winter I tried the Avon distanzia, but didn't like them as the pirellis so I went back, drawback to the MTR60s besides being a NOISY tire is they don't last that long, 5000miles at best

in summer I run Azaro STs (av45/46)

wow! theres some tread on that tyre!!!!! :lol:
are they good for the cold wet roads? no worries about tyre life, i only got 5000 before these d220s need replacing!
