Yokohoma AVS Sports, Bridgestone S-03 (awesome in the rain and dry...probably the best all aroun performance tire) and Michelin Pilot Sport..

If I had a S2000 I would go Yokohama AVS or Bridgestone S-03...The S-03 is worlds better than the S-02 from what reviews I have read....Lots of corvette C5 owners are getting the S-03s...

I have asymmetrical P zeros on my Volvo (205/45 17s). I like them in the dry and wet weather.

Durability has been a question mark. The 45 series sidewalls are very short and do not hold up well against the pothole infested roads of Boston. Treadlife wise they are much better than the S02s.

I like the S02s better in the dry weather and just slow down when it is wet out.

If you do take the P zero plunge please let us know how they work for you.
