Default somewhat weird tire question......

i'm replacing my tires for the first time on the s2k....i'm keeping the stock rims, and i've decided to stay with the s0-2.

the question i have is: is it possible to put a slightly wider tire on the stock rims?

also, what about a slightly bigger sidewall? i have this idea that it might make the ride quality marginally better.

whaddaya think?

gui3,

If you are trying to get wider tread on the stock wheels...look no further...you are running them wide already.

Other than that...the S03 245/45/16 specs show that they have pretty wide tread.

If you are looking to get more cushion out of a tire...I suggest you not get S02's...their sidewall seems to be pretty damn stiff.
