Muckman has them on his GSR. hit him with an IM if you need any info.
The S03 are superb tires for street use, and the 195/50r15 is CHEAP thru tirerack, at around $75 or so a tire, thats a sweet deal for that tire. great tire... and I use AO32R, but the S03 would be my choice for a dedicated summer tire if I couldn't run a DOT slick.

If you're looking for a good tire, but not a rediculous price, the general concesus is Falken Azenis.

Problem with Azenis is that they don't handle very well in the rain We have a lot of rain in Miami.
