Daniel,
The tires are due to arrive tomorrow or the next day and I hope to get them on before the end of the week. I'll let you know or maybe, just post a report on the e-39 Forum.

Let me know how you like the S-02s, in terms of wet and dry adhesion, steering response, ride quality and noise. How did you make your decision?

The Dunlop 2000E's have enough adhesion for my needs, but I'm unhappy with the steering response. So next spring I'm going to look for something with better response without giving up much on comfort and noise (I find the 2000E's are pretty comfortable). I'm thinking of S-02s, Pilot Sports, or maybe the new Pirelli P Zero Rosso.

Good luck.
