Default Is this a wierd tire configuration?

What were some of the tire size dimensions you guys are running on your cars... I just bought an s2k a couple of days ago and the car came with 205/55/16's in the front and 225/50/16's in the rear. Does this sound OK.....

You asked this question in that other thread, yet at no time have you made it known what brand of tire you have. In fact, in that other thread someone answered your question with all the possibilities. OEM vs non-OEM. Which do you have?

Well, the point was, someone already answered you.

Potenza WHATS????? If OEM tires (ie. 16" SO2s), then this is the correct sizing. If you don't have SO2s, they should be 245s on the rears. See the sticky at the top of the wheel/tire forum that tells you why this is.

damn dude is there somthin up your ass...relax a bit it was a simple question that I wasn't sure about and you didn't have to answer if you didn't want to...thanks for your replies anywayz
You know what? It's only YOU, who think I've got "somthin' up my ass". I hadn't quite gotten fed up with having to play "20 questions" just to help YOU out. You come on here asking a bunch of questions WITHOUT any supporting details whatsoever and expect people to help you. You don't have a bloody clue, do you, about even HOW to ask a question? Do you realize how many different types of Potenza tires Bridgestone makes? NOONE here should have to repeatedly ask you for details when YOU'RE the one wanting help.
But you're right .................... NOW, I've got something up my ass ................... people like you who don't have the slightest clue on how to ask a question and interact with others on an internet forum. I've answered THOUSANDS of questions in the more than 5 years I've been here and helped HUNDREDS of people, even though they don't have the smarts to help themselves by providing details. YOU, on the other hand, have responded poorly to my constant badgering for MORE DETAILS. YOU, are no longer going to be one of those people that I shall help from this point on. YOU, are about to be put on my IGNORE list (means I will no longer see your posts). YOU, are not worth my time or effort.
Buh-bye.

Well he has a point and was trying to help you out. Your lack of details is preventing that. That is not his fault, it's yours.
