What do you feel are the best tires to use for each surface type?

I have Dunlop 752's, but I've seen a few K490's and 756's for sale on eBay and wondered about how well they work.

Most of the tracks out in the Mid-Atlantic region lend themselves to softer tires. I use Michellin S12s front and rear. That rear S12 is a real rooster!

IMHO, Dunlop 756 everywhere except Cahuilla Creek's sand and then it is 773.
