Getting new summer tyres to replace the RF after the winter, what should it be?

Getting new summer tyres after the winter to replace the RF, what should it be?

Looking for bridgestone's RE002, or S001

or Michelin Pilot sport 3? or super sport?

or Yokohama's AD08?

I'm just starting to save my money for the tyres! thanks

While not summer tires we have the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus and they have been awesome.

Michelin is a good choice. The continental DW has also received good reviews and it is much cheaper (at least in the US.) I am going to order summer tires for the Pea once the CM comes in and I am leaning towards the Conti DW.

I'm doing everything I can to get my MA to swap my tires upon pickup. I'm even delivering the winter wheels and tires before i take delivery so my rubber (18") will be BRAND NEW...

I'm looking at the Sumi HTR Z 3's. I had them on my Audi and they were perfect.

I just received, and have posted about receiving the Conti Extreme DWSs. No complaints so far; they're great all-weather tires. Since I'm not racing the car, I'm all right with the all-season compromise. As I've stated before, they're many times more comfortable than the RFs.
