S03's
Just got a set of S03's, I must say they performed a lot better than even I had expected. prior to these tires I had RE730's which were good but comparing them to the S03 is like comparing chocolate and dog ****. Although they are expensive, I highly recommend them to anyone who is into road racing or auto-x

Actually I had RE730's and didn't think much of them...besides the fact that they are pretty loud ... Then the 730's are not much cheaper then S03's when you are getting 17's and 18's..
I have yoko AVS sports right now... but maybe nexttime I will try S03's...

Johnny, I used to have AVS sports too on my FD, they are very good but I think the S03 is better.
I am running 235/45/17 in the front and 255/40/17 in the rear

not bad in the rain either
I replaced SO2's with the SO3's. I think the SO2's were a little stickier (damn little) but in the rain they were.....interesting. Shortly after I got the SO3's I was going down 101 at about 80 in the rain and they barely hydroplaned. and with 245's! Yeah, I think it's worth the money. It's kinda funny if you spend anything on suspension and brakes, really tires will make a bigger difference than anything else for the money. When it comes to tire, brake the bank! Get the best and pay down the visa card later

*Yokohoma A008P ($155@TireRack 160 A A UTQG)
