Ask 10 Buellers about tires and you will get at least 8 different answers.
So many variables. Wet or drive climate. heat. ride all the time regardless of rain or only a fair weather rider.
There may even be some that buy second sets of wheels so they can run different tires for "twisty" days and commuter days.

I decided to go with the Michelin Pilot Road 2's ...excellent choice. 2 compound tires for great cornering and long wear use.

im in california..bay area. mostly dry roads but its pretty slippy this time of the year in the mountains but im looking for a good summer tire..

well it depends on weather you want more of a all out sport tire or more of a long range type tire. I tend to lean more toward the sport touing type tires as oposed to the all out sport tire. something like the pilot roads or conti road attack they will get you more milage out of them but if you want more grip go with some thing like the pilot power or the conti sport attack.
