Going to order Potenza RE750s for stock rims. Can any one confirm (information from other threads) that I should be putting 245/45R16 size on rear wheels? Thanks.

 

confirmed.

Didn't you like the S02s?

 

Confirmed, and from looking at the specs it looks like for the fronts an RE750 in size 225/50R16 would maintain the stock S02 stagger of 1.4 inches.

 

Loved 'em. But I don't race, and for about $300 less I can get better wear and better wet handling.

 

Good Luck to you.

 

Its no luck, RE750 is better wet and wearing tire than SO2, which is dry pavement only tires.

 

That is what the RE750 is all about. If I can help give me a call.

Hey, Jim, so does that mean that if you get different tires (i.e. Kumho Ecsta 712) with the same 225/50/16 rating, they would be shorter in overall width? Or the same overall width, but less contact patch?

For the price of 2 S02s, no matter how much I love them, I can get a set of Kumhos. Damn, decisions decisions.

Also, what is the difference between an A and an AA rating in traction?
