Your best sticking with the OEM RE050s on your 05 IMHO - they are a good compromise between the SO2s (for 16" MY 2003 and older only - man's tyres), and girlie tyres.
just wondering if anyone has tried F1`s or T1Rs on the MY05 and their views on them compared to the RE050`s which imo seem to be just as shite in the wet as SO2`s from what people say here.

I normally do mine in about 5000miles including a trackday. But i change mine on the wearbands. The last few mm is FUN 
Bit bumpy tho. They are pretty much on them at the mo - whilst its a good laugh the ride is terrible.

i get about 10k i reckon.. car is my daily commute though so a lot of that is traffic plodding. my fronts lasted about 18k
i take em right down to the wire... not quite literally. at my service in sept they said i needed new ones, finally got round to it this week.. they were illegal apparently.. oops.
