This has probably been talked about before but thought I’d add my 2 pence worth in 
Initially car came with Bridgestone Potenza RF. I found that tyre had good grip (at high and low speed) and very good breaking distance. But they did give a very hard feel to the car (going over pot holes felt like I was hitting the curbs) and also found them a bit noisy. I changed to Goodyear Eagle F1 RF (@ 22000 miles). This was a much softer (but not too soft) tyre and gave very good feedback. I also found them have marginally better breaking distance in the wet then Potenza's (so excellent). However, at high speeds, I found them to be a bit unstable. Didn’t give the same confidence as the Potenza's did at high speed.
My current setup is:
Front: Goodyear Eagle F1 running at 34psi
Rear: Bridgestone Potenza running at 40psi
This seems to have cured the high speed stability and also the harder ride of the Potenza's. I have been running with this setup for about 6 weeks now and I feel much more confident in corners and the general ride of the car
