Edit: Cuz they don't give it a very good rating for being that expensive...

i'm leaning towards FK452s right now as replacement for the almost-worn out RT615's on my car, and it may be as soon as within the next couple thousand miles. edgeracing has them on sale for $124 each for 225/45/18.
yes the FK452's will be a lot less aggressive than the RT615's, but since i only do like couple track events a year on my basically stock setup RX-8, the higher cost and shorter life of the RT615's don't really justify how i use the 8 90% of the time. so FK452 will do for now

The RE 050A have a new version the RE 050A Pole Positions. These replaced the previous generation S03 PP's. If they tested these I heard they are very good.

Autocar Tyre Test 2007 was conducted at the Contidrom, near Hannover in Germany – arguably the world’s foremost tyre testing facility. We stacked six tyres up for comparison: Continental’s ContiSport Contact 3, Pirelli’s P-Zero Nero & Rosso, Bridgestone’s Potenza RE050A, Michelin’s Pilot Sport and Goodyear’s Eagle F1.

.....check the differences on how each tyre behaves when it is either on a front or rear wheel driven car!!
Total points: Goodyear 52,5 ποντοι - Michelin 49 - Continental 41- Bridgestone 37,5 - Pirelli 30
Michelin better in Dry, and Goodyear in the Wet. Continental is amazing when tested on Aquaplanning
