I have the Nitto 555zr or something like that. Kind of noisy at the limit of adhesion - they howl. Pretty cushy ride though...

Haven't driven in the rain yet. Decent grip in the dry. Next time around - I'll probably go with S03s.

p.s. don't get 265s if you are lowered. 255 with decent offsets would work better, IMO

I have the Falken GRBs and was a little worried about their performance. Took them to the autox yesterday and I have to say I like them a lot. They held up very well. As well as the SO2s. I would buy them again when they need to be replaced.

SO3's all the way... But I don't drive "spirited" all the time, so they've worn extremely well.

You might want to look at Pirelli P-Zero Nero. I'm running those are they are a whole lot quieter than the 'Stones. Sizes are 235x40 and 265x35 so the grip is great with the larger contact area. I don't drive much in the rain (if I can help it), so I cannot give an opinion how they are in the wet compared to the S02s.
