Tire brand and size.

I've read quite a bit in this forum in regards to what brand of tire to use and what tire size to run. What I'm asking is what is best for my situation. I do not ride tracks at this time, I ride mainly in local canyons and to/from work. I'm not too worried about wear and tear. Money is not an issue, so I guess I would like something sticky and easy to warm up. I don't ride in the rain, but I do ride quite a bit in city traffic. Your expert opinions are welcomed.

I think either the Corsa's or the BT014s are a great choice. I currently have 2100 on my Stones with very little sign of wear at all

On my second rear BT014. Great steet tire IMO. Does well in the rain and warms up nicely. I got a nail in my first one at about 2200 miles. I still had about 1/3 tread left on the center so I probably could have gotten another 1000-1500 miles easily.

I just run 208GPAs, either 180 or 190. My bike does not spend much time on the street.

Diablo Corsa front and Rennsport 180/55 rear (ex trackday tyre cheap $). Probably stick with Diablo's in future and had 4000Kms outta rear when changed out and still had half it's life left on it.
