Default Tyre trouble

Slightly unusual question. Rather than asking which tyre is the stickiest, best performer can anyone give me a nod in the direction of a tyre that lasts a decent mileage.

I use the SV for an eighty mile round trip commute and the Pirelli Dragon Evo that I put on 4 weeks ago is just about illegal. I can’t afford that!

Any suggestions?

Z6s, Stradas, Road Attacks or one of the Avons, I forget which. But personally I love the Roadtecs. Not quite up to trackdays IMPO, otherwise I've never felt any lack of grip from them, and they're also great in bad conditions.
