BT020s or D220s
Time to replace the tires and I'm looking for something that wears a little better. Any opinions on the BT020s or D220s?

Have BT010's and they wear rather reasonable considering my riding style (aggressive). I can get about 2-2.5k on the front, averaging about 2 rears per front. Haven't done the 020's, but a friend of mine that had them liked the 010's better. Better handling and feel and the milage he got wasn't significant.
Have no experience with D220.

My ZZR came stock with the 020's. Not too impressed with them, I plan on gong to the D220s when replacing them. BTW, the '03 ZZR comes with D220s.

120/70 (stock) front, 180/55 rear. I'm going to try a 190/55 as I think I'm losing a bit of tire contact patch at full lean angle.

I really liked the 010s for the street. Great wear out of them, but they would come apart at the race track. Just a few laps would put too much heat in them and the back tire would get all greasy.
