Yeah i haven't had a chance to update my profile yet. I felt strange not listing owning an s2k so i left it blank but now that i do i can update it.

 

Just north of Worcester here.

 

Mongo, what we really need to know is how much you're looking to spend.

Hankook RS-2's are great (perhaps) on a budget, but there are better tires out there if you're willing to put up the $$$.

For daily driving, I recommend the Falken FK-452s. Loved them while I had them. Went with Eagle F1's simply because I needed a stickier tire for some of the events I attend.

 

A belated welcome to mongo84. Mongo, I sent you email.

 

Since this got bumped up, I'll post my question... what's the difference between S02s and S03s? (And don't say it's one more)

 

Different tread pattern, possibly slightly different compounds, but not much. They both turn into bricks below 40 degF. Trust me.

 

Hehe. No worries there. I have snow tires.

 

Just dont buy tired tires you od wnat to be able to drive on em and wear them out, whats that you ask ... well that would be any tire over 18 months old. Lookat the date codes b4 u buy.

 

You can eliminate the word perhaps from that statement.

The Hankook Z212 RS-2 for me has proven to be an awesome tire. When driven with smoothness they have all the grip I need for the street, driving beyond their limits in my situation would have me driving in a totally socially irresponsibel way. In addition they are great in the rain, and the grooves are so wide they don't seem to suck up and hold little stones, you know the ones that fly out at speed and do nasty things to the lower body paint.

I'll be buying a new set of rears this winter. I have gotten two summers out of the rears. I may or may not buy new fronts, the fronts have a decent amount of tread left but 1- the inner edge is more dramatically worn which is typical for my suspension set up and 2- they are so cheap I may just replace them instead of spending the money to have them unmounted, flopped, remounted and rebalenced. Oh, 2-summers would be about 15,000 miles for me.
