I would actually look at the Bridgestone RE760 Sport. They are going to be better riding, longer wearing and better in the wet than the original tires. They are also a better price and quieter than the original tires.
While they are not quite as good as the S02 in handling they are still a good handling tire.
If I can help just let me know.

We did test the S Drive with the RE760 and they were similar. If I can help let me know.
