Default Good/Light Summer Performance Tires

I've had Kuhmo 712s, and from what I understand they are a heavier tire/tyre depending on where you're from.

I guess I'm looking for something that offers similar performance, but for the lightest weight tire, I've heard the Dunlops are light weight but then I have also heard numerous bad things about them.

Anything else light weight?

Don't forget the Falken Azenis. It may not be really light, but you can get it at a really good price. Much lower than Paradas or Proxes.
