I have a 2000 Viggen coupe with a set of the one-piece BBS RK 17" wheels on my car along with a set of Bridgestone RE750's. I have had the S03 pole positions previous to these tires and quite frankly I feel very little difference in terms of feedback, tracking, and turn-in response between either sets of tires from new. I am running 225/45-17's in both cases and other than a slightly more comfortable ride on the RE750's they are very similar.
The treadwear rating on the 750's is nearly twice the rating on the S-03's and the price is less. I think I paid about $530 shipped for the RE750's to Baltimore from the Tire Rack.
Hope that helps!
