While they are more expensive, they are only $100 in total more expensive than the stock Bridgestone RE50As, which only had a 140 wear rating, while the new S-04's have a 280 wear rating. I did not wish to purchase a less expensive tire that would take away from the handling characteristics of the car. That is why I stayed away from the Conti DW, which everyone rated mediocre under "Steering Response" as compared to others.
