Bridgestone Potenza S-03 Pole Positions are going to be my next set of street tires. Kumhos are good for the money, but the S-03s are better I hear.

If you are going to get the S-03's then look into the RE750's. I had S-03's and loved them and I plan to buy the 750's over the S-03's.

ps- Why isn't this in the wheel and tire section? <-- Not to be an ass.

I cant make a real suggestion until i know what youre gonna use the tires for.

Tireracks got better prices and their reviews and tests are pretty good as well I think.

What about the Yokohama Parada Spec2s?

A couple of guys out here have them and love them.

I'll be looking to get tires myself before too long, Don't have to worry about snow here, just the occasional wet weather.

I have them and I absolutely love them. They are excellent in both wet and dry roads, plus they have a cool tread pattern. I beleive they stopped making them, but I'm not sure. One of the tuner shops I go to told me this but I don't know. Something about them not selling as much as they would like. But there are probably still some in the warehouses. If you can you should get these if you don't wait for the Fuzions.
 
I've driven a few cars with Firestone Firehawk SZ50 EP's and was impressed with those tires. Grantes they're a bit on the pricey side, but they've also got better treadwear than most tires in that segment. Again, it depends on what you're looking for the tires to do.... Just thought I'd throw those in as a suggestion, however.
 
Go with the S03's and you'll be happy with your choice. Their stick is amazing (even in the cold 30's-40's) - no more wheel hop in first!
