Good tire, decent tread life. For an affordable summer only tire, I'd go with the Hankook Ventus V12 Evo K110. Great tire for the money.

Bridgestone RE760 is a good tire on a budget also.

I went with the S.drive, and the ride feels a bit stiffer now. I think the tire is still new or the side walls are thicker. Anyways, I'm still breaking in the tires so it will be a couple of weeks before I can push the tires laterally.

I update you guys with the performance as soon as I get to push the tires a little bit. ;\)

Thanks for the suggestion guys! \:D

Just got through a set of S Drives and they're decent tires. If I were to do it again, I'd go back to RE760's. IMO, they're the perfect combo between performance and daily. S. Drives were ok, but performance wasn't that great. They did get a little more life than RE760, but I still got 40k out of RE760's (with a few auto-x events). Sidewalls were noticeablly stiffer, which was a good thing for me.

So the ride is a little rougher due to the stiffer sidewalls?

I'm thinking a lighter set of wheels at the moment.
I'll probably try the RE760 with the new set of wheels.. \:\)
