Got some new tyres:
Federal 595 RS-R - on the standard rims - I was sick of waiting to find a set of rims that i liked and i needed new tyres.
With the H&R/Koni, whiteline rear swaybar, seat cupra cabs, new strut top bushes/bearings - feels like a completely different car

how much did the 595s set you back?

I got mine from Option1 garage, they were $188 each and cost 40-50 bucks for shipping down to Melbourne. They're an awesome tyre, grip really hard and lasted 4 sessions on the track without any fuss and still have heaps of life left
I don't think the current RS-R are the same as the original one though... they're less "semi-slick" than they were (from memory).
I originally had the plain 595RS, which I got for $150, brand new, but they were surplus from a one make racing series, and this was in mid 08. In Jan 09 I cut a tyre in a pot hole, and this is when I had to get the RS-R (for $300), as they had stopped making the RS. Visually, the tread pattern is exactly the same, but now there is and extra 'R' on the sidwall, and apparently the compound is of a different construction, but that is it as far as I know.
