yeah, 140 treadlife of the 050's has to be teh suck especially for their premium price..

kumho mx might be the bang for the buck for me.

Azenis don't come in oem sizes, I would have to go a size wider and taller. :hs: Probably not too big of a deal but S2000's already suck on gas.

Edit* Plus Azenis don't last very long although they are sticky.

MXs are great tires with decent tread wear (220 or 240 rating) and really sticky, but it might compromise some handling feel because of its notoriously soft sidewalls.

I'd stick with some stiffer sidewalls if you really care about the S2000's handling. If not...Kumho MX's hands down.
