The most positive feedback I've heard is on Avon Storm Ultras, but I've heard great things about all Avon tyres.

For every person who says [insert tyre here] are awesome and they will instantly turn you into Vale with more grip than is possible to explain by physics, another will say those [insert same tyre here] are rubbish and if you use them you will have no grip, crash and kill kittens.

Black and round for me. With some lines on them. (Metzler Z6)
