I bought my R used with Kuhmos on it. So i never got to feel the RE 10. I dont care about wear, i just want the stickier tire of the 2. Their is a three dollar price differencebetween the 2, so its all good. Thanx

A better value would be Falken Azenis if you have a seperate set of rims for the track (almost no wethandling with this tire) or Yokohama AVS ES100 if you also use your rims or car for daily driving.
If money isn't an issue, the S03 offers a bit more grip but it costs about $40 more per tire than either the Yoks or the Falkens. The stock RE010 is an overpriced, underdurable wunderkind.

Can someone quote prices for all the tires listed above? It's interesting that the S03, AVS ES100, and Azenis are also the top tires for the WRX. Hopefully these are much cheaper in the smaller ITR size.

Check http://www.tirerack.com for the best prices on all three brands (assuming you know where to get them mounted and balanced for cheap)
