I don't think Bridgestone makes an "SO1". Please show us where they do.

Thanks. Funny, I didn't see them in the Bridgestone USA site, but found it on the TireRack site. Looks like they're only available in 17" and 18" sizes.

Available rear diameters are nearly an inch more than OEM, so would throw the speedo out just a bit.

ps. I was looking for the "Potenza" line, which the S02 is part of.

Well search around at the tirerack website, and look at the choices avalible in your size. And find something that fits your need, and budget. Or call them up and ask there opinion.

OE Evolution 4/5 tyres ... Chalk and Cheese compared with the OE S-02s we use. The S-01s have substandard dry handling and virtually no wet handling capability. The S-02 dramatically improved on dry handling but wet is still quite edgy. Want something better? RE-01R ... The flagship Potenza road tyre bar none.
