Welp after a couple years my S03's are done. Couple years, but I should mention that I probably only got 10K miles out of them. Other then the wear factor the S03's have been outstanding; great handling wet and dry, and quiet. We drive the car a bit more now then 2 years ago, so I'm considering something that will last a little longer but don't want to give up too much handling for my weekend jaunts. I may just stick with the S03's, but if there is something similar handling with a bit longer life please point me in the right direction.

BF Goodrich G-Force KD are great tires, very sticky. i got about 20k on them, but i guess it all depends on your driving habits. for a little more dough michelin pilot sports, their top of the line tire, are the best tires i've used. it's a tad stickier then the BFG and are very quiet. both tires are awesome on dry surface as are the SO3's you had.

Was also suggested the Toyo Proxes T1-S. Not like it would add much additional tire life but was said to be comparable to the S03's.
