Tire wear
I used to get 1700~2000 out of a rear D207. The Michelin Pilots have been pretty consistent at around 2300~2500. I hear the Bridgestones do even better then that. Still, I'm so happy with my Pilots, I don't see me switching brands anytime soon.
BTW, I actually get better mileage (and handling) from a 180/55 then I did from the 200/50 with all that "special belt" crap.

Michelin Pilot Sport HPX. Ride over 8500km(=5300miles) and they still had plenty of thread. The ride included 60% of fast highwayriding - over 200KM/h and quite a lot of twisty Alpine roads. You can check my trip last summer from here: My trip. With Bridgestones the best I could get was little less than 8000km and they were toast.
