I am on th edge of buying new summer tires and what to get some of the lists
opinions:
(max perf. category)
Bridgestone Potenza S-03 PP
Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3
Kumho ECSTA MX
lastly the Yokohama AVS ES100 (ultra high perf. category) (these are cheap)
FYI - Tire Rack is offering a $100 off a purchase of four for most
Bridgestone models. This does make the Pole Positions look more attractive
but I already have them and was thinking of being adventurous.
TIA

Have you considered the Michelin Pilot Sport PS2s?

Andrew,
I have consider the PS2 but the Goodyears are also on sale for about $15/
tire cheaper. Did you have any opinion on the ones I listed or do you have
the PS2s?
Thanks
Clyde

I have the PS2s, and had the S-03s before that. The PS2s are better than
the S-03s especially in terms of feedback. I've never tried the
Goodyears, but a friend with a 350Z Track package was not very impressed
with them, FWIW. My car is an E46 328Ci sport package with stock
suspension for the S-03s, and halfway through the PS2s' lives.

As far as the PS2s and the S-03s is the ride harsher with the PS2s? Are
they louder or quieter than the S-03s? The sale on the S-03s is fairly
significant so the PS2s would need to be better in the areas I just
mentioned as well as wet performance.
What do you think Andre?
