I have had these before, but not on an S2000. They are an "okay" tire. To me they seemed to wear very fast and became very noisey. So noisey that I had to change them out prematurely. Grip in dry and wet weather were also just okay nothing spectacular. Now the Hankook Ventus V12 K110 are an awesome tire all around! The Yokohama S-Drives were pretty good too.

I had the 452s on my front rims when I bought them. I bought a set of rears to match the front and wore them out in the rear before the 1/2 gone fronts wore out. They were okay tires at an okay price.

I'm going to try the Hankook Ventus V12 K110. They were rated a close 2nd behind the star specs by car and driver. - - And cost significantly less

I have them, and i'm very happy with it, the grip for my use is very excellent.
And they don't cost an arm and one leg.
