I have a set of Dunlop FM901 Tires in 205/55/16 & 225/50/16 for sale. They have about 75% Remaining...No camber wear...

I am open to offers but I am hoping for around $325.00 for the set...

Please either PM or email me: bobby@tunerworks.com

Also, I hope to find someone in the Calgary area...

Yep.. 245/45/16 for the rears on the 00-03, when not doing the OEM tires.

NOPE! That is the same size that the car comes with from the factory!

Yeah but the factory tires are not really 225's. The actual contact patch is very close to a 245 series. And the fronts are actually closer to 200~

I agree with the first two statements but I don't understand the third.

Tim, the S02 has a squarer profile, so it's width is closer to a 245 in another tire.

225 in a non-S02 is definitely too narrow.

Yes, the S02's are a "wider" tire (contact patch), but saying that they are close to a 245 is abit of an exaggeration...

It's like jeans, not all 34" Jeans fit the same...

Yeah Marco, I understood and agreed with all that, but I don't think the fronts are different.

Tuner, if you put my 225 S02's beside my 225 Blizzaks, you will notice a HUGE difference.
