You should be able to tell by looking at the tread. The 205/55 has MUCH larger channels than the 225/50. I think the regular S-02s will have similarly sized channels, and may also be labeled "Pole Position" or "PP". I'm not absolutely certain, but it's a start.

The quick and easy method is that the S2000 tires are W rated, where the other S02s are Z rated, also the 89W and 92W specification is unique to the S2000 OEMs.
