Read this article, might give you some hints about some of the best performance tires on the market today, showing that Continental CSC5, Michelin PS3, and F1A2 are among the best out there.
http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/accessories-t...best-tyres-2015Now about the RE003, it's much newer tires compared to the others so not yet many reviews on it. It might be the best value for money coz cheaper than PS3 & F1 (it's made in Indonesia or Thailand). Based on limited reviews so far, it's very good in the dry and also very good in the wet at least when new. Main downside is might not last as long (low tread wear rating).
You may also want to check out Hankook V12/S1 Evo2, as these are also often reviewed as excellent high performance tires with price cheaper than CSC5, PS3 or F1A2.
I think you won't go wrong with PS3, F1, RE003, CSC5, or the Evo2, just depending now on your budget vs durability. The other 2 in your choices won't be able to match those above even though they're made in Japan. The S.Drive has not been on the radar in most high performance tire reviews now. Yokohama most of the time put the newer Advan Sport which is higher than S.Drive to go against PS3/F1/CSC5 and often actually also still lost in many reviews, so it's safe to assume the lower & older S.Drive would not be able to match. Now Toyo T1 Sport in most reviews never crack the top 5 like PS3/F1/CSC5. In the review I put above, it's even worse than the economic/cheap brands like GT Radial HPY or Falken FK453.

how come u put sdrive with re003 and f1 together?
sdrive is much more expensive than re003 and f1
i mean, is both this tyre even compare with sdrive? for ps3 even though its pricey, it is rival of re003
S.Drive is old Yokohama tire. It won't be able to match the PS3 or F1 or RE003. Read my comments above.
