Default Tyres for 1989 911 3.2

I would like to know wich are the best tyres for my car. It has 205/55/16 in the front and 245/45/16 in the rear.

My doubt is between the Bridgstone S-02 and the Michelin Pilot Sport 2

Michelin sport cups...grip, grip and grip. Ride is excellent, wear good. Nothing comes close.

Well, everybody in my region who wins auto-x on street tires uses Bridgestone S03s, and they're by far the best if you have wet weather. Are S02's still available in your area?

Not sure if he's asking of R-compounds. Although, those would be great, they are awful in the wet. OTOH, most of the better tires are not available in the rear size requested.

I think you can get the BFG K/D in those sizes, really a good tire.
