S-03's in the front so far
I don't know why a few bash the S-03's for this car.
Although I hardly had any tread left on the front S-02's which could possibly make up the difference.
Anyhow these tires stick much better in these colder temps and in the rain they're retarded.
Steering response is marginally compromised but not enough to worry about.
Since they stick much better my brakes are 5x better. I can't wait for my rears to come in now.
The only problem with S-03 in the front and near dead S-02 in the rear in the wet is oversteer without throttle assistance. Although it's controlled it can be easily introduced into the equation

From all the reading I have done. This is what I have come up with.
The S2K specific S-02 is better in the dry. Not by much but better and it has a slightly stiffer side wall for a tad bit better steering response.
As for wet the S-03 takes the cake hands down.

jay, make a comparison when you have all 4 of the same tires... since you have nearly dead rears, making a comparison now means nada... hehe
dude, pick up the guy's tires who is selling them for $800
