i think bridgestone made a replacement for those tires...though i could not tell you what it was.
i remember edge racing carried toyo proxes 4, and i loved the tread design...but i cant seem to find those tires anywhere! how long did/are they lasting you?

I bought the Proxes 4s January this year. So far so good

They're really all-season tires with some high performance characteristics, not all-out grip monsters, so it's a bit of a compromise. More of an S.drive competitor than a Direzza Star Spec one I'd say.
Regarding the S-02/PPs: Bridgestone made the S-03 and RE001 Adrenalin as replacements for those, both also on the Potenza lineup. Sadly there's no 205/45R16 size for the RE001 sold locally...and I'm not sure if they're sold there either.
I could get a set of the RE001s via "gray import" from a friend but it'd take a couple months. When you got sidewall damage on your only car, you won't be able to wait 2 or 3 months
