It depends on what kind of car you have.
Is this is for the GS-R, then get 205/45-16. Some tires come in 215/45-16 and not 205/45-16, and you can use that too.

So... is this for your GS-R?
And what are you looking for in a tire? Only for maximum traction and handling on dry pavement? Or do other factors matter, like traction in rain, treadlife, price, etc? Do you have separate winter tires (or another vehicle to use in winter conditions)?

The Yokohama ES100 is good, but I think the Kumho Ecsta SPT is a better choice. It's less expensive ($71 vs $85 in 205/45-16), is better on wet pavement, and has a higher treadwear rating (although the ES100 is still very good in both those areas).
