Default Tire decision pain...

I really just can't decide which tire to buy for my 2001 S4. I've narrowed it down to the S03 and the Pilot Sport (I think). The price is pretty close between the two, but how do I decide which one?

I drive mainly off the highway, lots of windy roads. I get a little agressive here and there, but not all of time. I want a tire that is good in both wet and dry, and I have no intention of doing any auto-x.

The reviews are all over the board on both tires. Any recommendations are much appreciated.

I think you'd be happy with either. Both are very close in most catagories. From the testing that we've performed the S03 edged out the Pilot Sport just slightly in most catagories, more noticably in wet traction.<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=AR8&amp;url=/tires/tests/bs_s03_rd.jsp">S03 vs Pilot Sport vs. Pzero Rosso Test Results</a></li></ul>
