Michelin Pilot Sport's is one the best tires money can buy. You can't compare them with Pirelli's.

Pilot Sport "might" be the best tires money can buy. But Toyo T1-S will definitely be the best tires that worth every penny of it. Given its performance and value, it is a bargain!!

I've used up 1 set of PZero original and 2 sets of PZero Rosso. Only to find them they stick like a glue on dry but are so poor on wet. I must admit at that moment my theory has always been the more expensive the better, so I didnt consider T1-S. But PZeros really wear out very fast (on average 7000 miles per set). Finally, I was convinced to switch to T1-S. I am on my 2nd set of Toyo now and I am happy with it. The only complaint on Toyo is it seems to get noiser as it wears out. Otherwise, the ride is smooth, the grip is great both on dry and wet. My other car has Pilot Sport before and I really dont think they worth that much, they are much worse on wet than the T1-S. I am not saying Pilot Sport is no good, just dont worth the money.

I heard so many good feedbacks on S-03, I was tempted to try it, but I dont think I will......

To answer your question: neither! Get T1-S or S-03.

Good luck! :p
