Which 'performance' tyres have you ridden? If all you are doing is skidding in the streets its unlikely you have pushed them to their potential.
Borek-
i ride long distances too, sprinting etc. ultra sport 2, gp4000s, gran prix 4, sworks gripton, rubino pro, shwalbe one, durano, rimbos, lugano, basically ive tried as many tyres as i can and only a few compare to the randos in terms of durability, value for money, grip in the rain and rolling resistance on shitty roads in the uk. Try it out for yourself. 25mm rando on the back always!

randos feel more supple on the back than most performance tyres that are kinda crap when on a low psi. the rubber compound probably plays a part too. not into spending money on ridiculously priced tyres when all im doing is skidin in the streets enit.
