got mine for 28 a piece.

i would say falkens are good choice, but if only going from the ones you mentioned, id go with Bridgestone RE 950 for daily driving all season.

the Bridgestone S-O3 are not all season.

I highly recommend you get the S-03's in the 195/50/15. They are 85 a peice, will give excellent dry and wet drip, raise your FD increases acceleration, and last a long time compared to other high performance summer tires.

I have a set of 205/50/15 S03's and I love 'em. Stick like they're supposed to on every corner. But I can't get them again because I can't afford to steal another chunk of cash out of my college fund.

I've had many good experiences with the Yokohama ES 100, however I've never had a bad experience with the S-03's in the rain.

Totally agree about the rain part. I believe the s03's gave me the edge during a rainy autox day back in feb. They held great and surprisingly well considering that they're summer tires.

I would be using the s-03's all year round though.

The yokohama AVS 100 and S-03's can both be used in the rain and snow. But, S-03's will be a lot better in the rain than the Yokos, and the S-03's give better dry traction. As far as snow goes, both can be driven in the snow but you have to drive carefully. I think both tires are better in the snow that the stock all season michilens.

Treadwear on the s03's are 220. I've driven many long distance trips and the grip is still there. I figure that during long distance trips, the tire isn't getting that much wear. A few autox events used up more tread than 7 or 8 thousand miles of highway traveling.

You cannot compare threadware with different companies, only within the same company. The threadware on the s-03's is 220, but they last just as long as the yokos. I think the yokos are 280. Either way both tires can last up to 25k miles.

I just put a set of AVS ES 100's on my teg and when i can get traction they seem great although i havent really been able to test them out yet cuz of all the salt and gravel on the roads
