I replace the stock rear tires on my '06 S2000 with BFGoodrich - g-Force

 

the stock tires have better grip i guess it happen to me when i got kumhos but with the RE-01R that light never comes on lol

 

 

1. it's a tire/grip issue. I'm sure your sensors are fine.

2. Not a good idea to mix tires, this could be part of the issue.

3. Next time around spend the extra cabbage and get four very good tires for this car. The S2K is extremely tire sensitive. The Sumitumo HRZ IIIs are very good tires for the money, the RE01Rs are fantastic.

 

Congratulations! Like a large percentage of S2000 owners, you skimped/didn't do your research when you bought the tires!

PRO TIP:

The tires contact the road.

(They're important)

 

I happened to my 06 also when I got the Sumi. HZRT III. My VSA was very sensitive for the first week or so but once my tire has a few miles on it and it grip alittle better the VSA doens't kick on like before.
I would say give your new tire a few more miles and you should be fine.

 

i don't have any issues with my TC. it never kicks in regardless of tires i use. AP1 for life baby!!!

 

Sounds like your new tires still have releasing agent on them. You may notice an improvement over the next 100 miles as that compound burns off.

 

re01r's on sale at the rack.$74 front $59 rears.better get them on order..

 

I have these and they do have much less grip than the stocks...

But they last forever!
