I'm happy with Conti Sport Contacts too. Actually just received an order for another bike of mine. I've got 37 mm version which "eats" potholes & still plenty fast. As the matter of fact, I do 20-25 miles on them 3-4 times a week every morning. They are great for dry and wet conditions & no flats yet. www.biketiresdirect.com has a very good deal on tires, especially if you buy more than two. And you should because you'll wear out the rear tire much faster & also you want to have a spare tire in case of irreparable damage like tears etc.

As of Performance Forte Tires, stay away from them. They are the only tires that I got flat in my front wheel. And I have more than 10K miles under my belt. One ride I got two flats in my rear tire during a SINGLE ride! The tires were new and the Kevlar version & got punctured by the banal glass. I got home after the ride, put them in the garbage & ordered the Contis.
