Default Potenza s-03 vs 050

I just realized that the tires on the s2k are 050s not s-03s I thought they came with s-03s are the 050s better or the s-03s?

What about in rain?

I thought the tires changed in 06 and not 05. Yes rain is better but cornering isn't. Thats probably how you got them to squeel other day.

They still work pretty well, if they are cheaper than the s-03s my dad said he'll just get another set of them.

The s2k ends up in rain suprisingly often too, its just too great of a car to stop drving when the sky clouds up

I don't have a lot of problems in the rain. People however don't like to be behind me because I do take off slow and take all corners in second that I normally would in first on a clear day. (From a stop light or something)

Turns in 1st

although the ap1 needs more reving than the ap2

I still drive kind of slow when I'm not in a spirited driving mood, so people behind me hate me, and I always have the headlights on, so the people in front of me probally hate me too.

btw, does your car have clear sidemarkers and turn signals?

I do have JDM (clear) side markers. However my "corner lenses" are amber. I've been wanting to clear them but paying 95 dollars for clear defusers isn't in my budget right now. If I take off in a turn lane to go left across an intersecition I'll short shift into second in the wet rather than making it back straight before shifting.
