I have no personal experience with either, but FWIW when I get new tires I plan to go with Toyo T1S.

Default Perhaps you should post the info you turned up when you searched...
so people don't have to post redundant information when answering.

Default I've had S03's for about 9 months, I love them. Great grippy tires, good sidewall strength
great wet traction as well.

Default get both...
I mean get one set now and then a different set next time. That is the only good way to understand the differences between the two and figure out for yourself which one you like better. After that, you'll know which ones to get.

Both are good tires, so it's not like you're gonna hate one and love the other.

Default S-03
I have T1-S on my bronze wheel sitting in garage, The S03 has more steering feedback at low speed while the toyo offer slightly better ride quality.

Both are great tires.

S-03s are cheaper.

you going to the pizza meet this saturday?
