Default Lookin' for some new rears

I need to replace the rears on my car. Right now I have S03's all around but I'm looking to go with something a little cheaper this time. I plan on sticking with the S03's up front for a little while longer because there's still quite a bit of rubber left on them. Any suggestions on what brand I should get? Has anyone used 2 different brands before, any problems?

EDIT: by the way I am looking for something for daily commuting. I don't auto-x and only go on group drives 4-5 times a year.. thanks.

Thanks

I wouldn't mix tires on this car. Proper tires are a cheap way to avoid wrecks if you get in a dicey situation.

I also would not recommend mixing tires on the car. The same level of traction on the front and rear is very important on a car like this. With a lower performance tire on the rear the car will oversteer even easier.
If I can help let me know.
