Hey, thanks for the feedback guys. I went ahead with the RE750's and don't have any regrets. It is what it is. I knew that there would be less grip with a higher treadwear rating, but I just can't spend a $1000 (the RE750's were $715 installed out the door @ Tire Pros) every 6 months on tires (as much as I would love to, I'm only 22 and am streching the wallet a bit to have my first pick of the cars I could actually obtain, I considered the WRX(fun!), RX-8(oil burner) and 350Z(fat-ass) but was able to get the best of them all, the S2000).
I took the car for a spirited drive up Protrero Rd. to Decker Canyon Rd. to Mulhulland Highway torwards the PCH and back, the tires did just fine. I made sure to be real smooth and cautious as to feel them out and build what little heat I could into them (it was about 45 degrees out, less than ideal for summer tires) and they proved themselves to be good tires. I never really took them to the level of the RE050s(first day, mind you) but I could still tell that they're good and I look forward to getting to know my new tires.
The RE050's were great. I expect these RE750's to be just slightly less great.
I know it's off topic but I just wanted to say that I hate BMW Z4's for some reason.
Be well.
