I am running Yokahama S Drives, must say I am pretty happy with them, were around 290ish each. Seem to be wearing well, and are pretty good in the wet. All in all am happy.

Cheers

I run bridgestone RE001, very happy with them. Hankook rs2's were my last tyre also good but not quite as good as the re001

Hankook RS2s are pretty good but if you can afford it spend a bit more and go for a set of Falken RT615s best street tire I have ridden on hands down.

Agree with Jaron. I'm getting some RS-2's from Wheels World. Had alook at the RT615 and they look mean as f*ck. Probably a bit too soft compound for my tastes on the street but looks like PLENTY of grip.

RS-2's are about $300ea (Can't remember exactly) but that's in 225/40R17 (again I think, John is doing it all for me so I just have to pay )

I have some Goodyear GS-D3's on my car, just fitted them like 3 weeks ago.

a little more squishy and comfortable then my last ones (goodyear rs-02's) but they just keep gripping and gripping.

I'll vouch for the GS-D3 F1 too, absolutely love them to shreads !

Atm i'm running Dunlop Direzza DZ101s on the front, and they are excellent. I have Potenza RE050A on the back, but when time comes i'll put the dz101s on there too.

Toyo Proxies 4. ~$195 each for 205/55/16. So far they have been great, great grip and relatively cheap. ... They would be more expensive for the STi Rims though.
