Thumbs up Looking for a different rear tire size.

I've been running Bridgestone RE750s for the last two years. Not a bad tire - held up pretty good, but my REAR's are wore out and I need some new ones.

I have been running 245/45/16 on the rears.

Bridgestone doesn't offer this tire size anymore OR the RE750s. In fact, only Fuzion tires does offer a 245/45 via Tirerack. Not big on Fuzions.

Bridgestone now offers the RE760Sport - practically the replacement model.

So....

Is the AP1 factory rear size of 225/50/16 what I should go with now? Or is there some size in between that is wider and closer to the 245/45 size???

Thanx,
Ry

Hankook Might make a 245/45/16 in the RS3. I know they did in the RS2 since I ran those for a few months.
