ok guys, i am going to order my rims pretty damn soon as I had to delay this process unfortunately, but now, thigns are back on track and was wondering which tires i shoudl go with? I want a good handling tire and a pretty good one in the rain, a bit better then the s02's in rain...

A) FALKEN Az. 615?
B)S0-3's?
C)ES100's?
D) any suggestions?

btw, tire size probably....225/255 in 17's.

 

I have es100's... good in rain... no different from S02's when dry (even at 10/10ths). IMO

 

yea i had es100's on my prelude. What are 10/10th?

 

None of those other tires even come CLOSE to the S-03

 

Better luck,if you post this in Tires and Wheels Forum.

 

Go with the S-03's....

There is a $100 rebate on a set on tirerack... maybe anywhere... but the price on tirerack is pretty sweet.

 

oh i didn't know about the rebate! thanks a lot! cuz when i order my rims from them, I might as well order the tires as well as they said they will mount it adn everything for free. So the s0-3 is better in rain, dry, handling, thread wear, noise and all that junk then all the other ones?

 

I'm sorry, but the ES100's don't come close to the S-02's in dry performance. The sidewall is a lot softer on the ES100's and the rubber is not nearly as grippy. ES100's are good for 8/10th's driving, but not 10/10th driving like the S-02's. IMO

Btw, ES100 doesn't come close to S-02 or S03 in performance. It is a middle-of-the-road tire.
