sup fellas, I just recently picked up some AP1 wheels for my 04 and just wonder what tire size should I go with for the front and rear, no track or anything just normal drive around on a nice drop, I know this might be a stupid question but im really lost when it comes to tire size and offsets, im learning....thanks fellas

 

Stock are 205 up front and 225 out back. Bridgestone Potenza S02

Great tire!

 

if your getting s02 you can do 225 in the back, otherwise go 245 with other brands

 

True, the Potenza S02 is labeled 225 but the physical size and tread pattern is on par with other companies 245.

 

The S02 is the best handling tire for the S2K in the 16" size. If I can help just let me know.

 

What are your second and third choices if one doesn't want to go with the S02? I don't track my car, just street use, and would like better tread life than the S02 provides. Have about 11,000 miles on the original set and they still look pretty good because i don't run my car hard. However, will be replacing them in the next 6 months or so and the only tire i see with decent tread life and in the 245/45/16 for the rear is the Fuzion. Some have said this is only an average tire. Kumho doesn't appear to come in the 245/45/16 size, or am i wrong about that?
