Re070's v. SO3's or anything better

At replacement time, what will be the pros and cons of these 2 tires v. each other. I don't care about noise or tire wear that much unless the difference is profound. The fitment is for a 2004 WRX STi.

If you drive in the rain and wet performance matters - go S-03. Otherwise, the RE070 will indeed outperform the S-03 in the dry.

Thank you Dexter. What about the tire wear and noise. Is there a profound difference?

Too close to call. The S-03 will likely stay quiet until the end where the RE070 tends to get progressively noisy as it wears.
