Get the 180 compound in ns2r if lasting is what you want.
Another choice is ad08s

Very much like the Bridgestone re070...but maybe a little better they are not too bad but need a little heat in them, In the wet I prefer the Federal RSR which is a 140 compound a decent all round tyre for the price, Although some early versions had issues with cracking appearing across the tread
