Upgrading RE92 is a great idea! They are junk! I got a set of Yokohama AVS ES 100's in 225/50/16. They are much better than RE92's, and cheaper, too!

Very informative thread! I'm in the same boat as KMan. Any other suggestions for all-weather performance tires aside from the few mentioned? (The S-03's sound like they may be the ones 
)

I've been looking into the Goodyear Eagle F1-GS D3 for a while... Definitely no go in snow, but overall they are some of the highest rated tires on TireRack's site. I ran into someone with a C-5 2003 Corvette, he said they stick like crazy and love water; they came on the car from the dealership and looked perfect after 6 months.

just bought in November Yokohama AVS dB2s and I am very happy with them. Forget all the noise the RE92's made, the Yokohamas are MUCH quieter. Wet traction is vastly improved. Turn-in response is WAY better. Roadholding seems to be on par if not better. My main reason for purchasing was to get a QUIETER all-season performance tire, so I could hear the engine instead of the growl-howl of the RE92s.
good luck,
Jim
