Default New tire for those with 18" wheels ?

Bridgestone no longer shows the S-03 at the top of the list of their high performance tires; it's been displaced by the RE050, and the S-03 is now #2.

The Bridgestone web site says almost nothing about the RE050, except that it's available in the S8's standard 245/45-18 size, and it's the OE tire for the S55 AMG. The RE050 is one fine tire if it really is better than the S-03.<ul><li><a href="http://www.bridgestonetire.com/dpp/glamourindex2.asp?passproductid=1063">Bridgestone RE050</a></li></ul>
