Avon tires, anyone? Or Michelin Power Pure?

More specifically, the Avon AM63 Viper Stryke scooter tires. Does anyone have experience with these? My priority is handling performance over longevity. Any thoughts? The reason I'm looking at these is because they are one of the very few companies that have the sizes I want for the front/rear of my Blur.
I would much rather have the Michelin City Grip tires, but they don't make the front tire in the size I want. I'd have to use a 130/70-13 intended for the rear as a front tire, but I'm not sure it will clear the fender as the 130/60-13 currently being used just barely clears.
Front: 120/70-13, slightly taller profile than stock to help correct speedo error (at the expense of throwing the odometer reading off).
Rear: 130/70-13, again, slightly taller profile, but this time to help get the scoot to a higher top speed.
Edit: Just found the Michelin Power Pure SC tires, anyone with any experience with these?
