Well it isn't really a Group Buy... I have 1 S-02 Pole position 225/50R16 with about 150 miles on it.
The reason why I only have 1 tire is my car was rear-end quite a while ago, and the lady broke one of my rims. So I got a new rim and tire. And the body shop put a PP on the left side and left the non-pp on the right.
So anyway when I figured it out, I just bought a set of 245/45's for my rear and had planned on putting the 225's on the front. But after speaking to people here, I decided against it. Besides, I think I am getting new rims soon.
So there it is.... 1 225/50R16 S-02 pp.
I live in SF Bay area, but I am willing to ship it. name your price.

Hey there! I noticed that you indicated that you put 45's on the rear. Are those S02's? I don't recall that they came in that size. I also noticed that the diameter of the 45's are a bit smaller than the stock 50's. Have you noticed any difference? Errors in the Speedo?
After the track day next week, I'll need new tires in the rear and I was thinking about 45's on the stock rim since they will fit. However; I was wondering if there is a downside.

yup the diameter is smaller, slighty, I have noticed a small difference. I can only do ~41 in 1st now.
And the are the PP tires. (yup. pp's on rear, non-pp's on front)
Also, in most cars, the speedo is calculated on the non-drive wheels, so that if you are spinning the tires, you still get an accurate reading of speed.
my fronts are stock, and my speedo seems to be accurate.
