You need to give us all more info. Like what do you expect from the tires. Do you autocross or drive only on highway, etc.

I like Toyo T1-S. Not as grippy as the S02's, but much, much better resisting hydroplaning in you drive in a lot of water. And lots smoother on the highway.

stay with the O.E.M s-02's if you have 16" rims. this tire was made for the s2000. these are the best summer tires for this car. yes they are costly,but worth it. for wet weather try s0-3's. If I had 17" rim's on mine, I would like to try some michelin pilot sport's. drive safe

I ordered Yoko ES100 245/45/16 rear, 205/55/16 in front. I couldn't afford the set of new S02's. I heard the ES100 are better in the rain too. I haven't autocrossed or tracked my car yet. I would like to eventually. I may autocross around here soon.

I hope the ES100 combination I got will be cool. What do you guys think.
