need ur clarification please!
 
I'm shopping for a set of 215/45/17 and 245/40/17.

My performance tire options include RE050s and RE750. which do you guys recommend?

Also, after putting on Hankook R-S2 tires on my stocks and running them through both dry and wet road conditions, I promised myself to look no other except these for any other size rims. However, they ONLY offer 245/45/17 in the back.

What happens if I ran 215/45 and 245/45 ? does the back sit taller? any effect on performance? thnx.

RE050's are great tires and they fit the S2000 perfectly.

thnx s2kra.

does anyone else have expereiences with the 750? and my question regarding 245/45 in the rearS?

The advantage of the RE750 would be longer wear and a little more comfort. They will not handle like the RE050 or the S02. The 245/45R17 rear is not a good thing. It will throw off the speedometer, odometer and the gear ratio. It can also throw off anti lock brakes.

If I can help with the tires let me know.

A bit off topic...how do you like the RS2's?? Track or Autocross on them?
