what tire are you guys running?
Hi guys,
I posted my question on the general board a few days ago regarding what tire should I get, (I am running on S-03s and the rears are going out soon)
and I also did a search in the wheel and tire section. The result is: too many different models (RE050, RE050 PP, RE-01, the OEM S-02s...)
With all those great recommendations, I am a little lost again,
so I figure why not just come to my local board and ask you guys what tires are you running? 
(please also inform the tire size)
Thanks in advance

it depends on what you're looking for.
if you don't have a huge budget and don't mind too much about the wet grip, get falken azeni rt-615. i had them for my rear tires for a while and did plenty of autocrosses with them without any issues. as long as you're responsible in the rain, it won't screw you as well.
i'm currently on bridgetsone re01r's and love them to death. they're a bit pricey though, but in my opinion, it pays off. the wear's pretty good with somewhere around 10k on my rear (2 track days and at least 4 autocrosses) and plenty to go.

For the money, it's hard to beat the Dunlop Z1 Star Spec. Price wise, in between the Falken RT-615 and the Bridgestone RE-01R, but way better grip then the Falken's and just as much grip as the Bridgestones.

thanx for the inputs guys!! 
I pretty much eliminated my choices to either RE050A pp or RE01R, still debating if I should just change the rears only or change all 4 wheels
