Default Need to replace S02 Rears

Can someone verify that if I dont get S02 replacements the correct size will be 245/45/16 and not 225s. Thanks.

If you go with S02, get 225

Anything else get 245

yeah, I dont know if S02s are in the equation. Budget is tight right now. I don't drive the car that hard so mis matching tires are not a concern. I was hoping these tires would have lasted me until spring of next year. The big screw has killed my hopes. Definitely 245s. Funny when I got the car the dealer had RE050s with 225s in the back. I guess they didn't know to look on S2KI.com for info.

If you don't drive aggressively, 225/50 in the back will be just fine. You dont HAVE to put 245/45 on the back but it will be closer to stock sizes. Again, not needed, especially if not driving the car like your hair is on fire. There are many many more tires available in 225/50 than 245/45, especially if you need something on the cheap side.
