For starters, you are definitly better with the S-02. It's the better dry handler and a much nicer tire indeed, and the price is less too which never hurts. As far as the wheel is concerned the 2 piece BBS wheels look awesome, but they are heavier and more $$$ than the one piece ones. Fine for the street, but not as good for the track. I would either look at the RC or RK for the best motorsports performers due to light weight and strength. If you would like to discuss further, I can put it all together for you.
