I just read a track comparo of the S03, Sports and Nero. These were all 225/45-17 on identical vehicles. They all came in very near each other, except in cost.
When you go to a tire of less tractive ability, you will be on TCS more often, and corning will suffer as well. More important, your braking performance is limited by the tire contact patch, and a lesser tire will not stop you as fast as the best performance tires. All of these three tires are 220 wear ratings. Higher wear ratings will mean less traction
I suggest another $70 is a good investment to get the Nero's
Tirerack is great. Yes, no tax, but you pay shipping. I would not get tires anyplace else.
