Ok, guys, I need help.
I painted my calipers this weekend, and when I took the wheels off, I noticed that I probably have a couple of thousand miles left on the tires. So, I gotta start looking.

I know everyone swears by the S02's.
But these are my options: Pirelli P-Zero, Dunlop SP 9000, Michelin Pilots, or the S02's.

Anyone have experience with any of them.
Advice on quality, handling, mileage.

I didn't have the stock S02's on there long enough to really evaluate them. Also, the PP's are quite popular. But, my problem is that if I go with those, I can only get the PP's for the rear(255/35 18) and the regular S02's for the front(225/40 18, they don't make the PP's in that size)

I am looking for great handling, but I was kind of dicouraged by the P-Zero's quick wear.

Advice? Help? Ideas?

Get the Toyo T1-S, they rock and are not that expensive. Unicorn has them on his 18 inch volks. He loves them.
