Thread necromancy in action. Thank you Search!
The stock S-02 has an 8.5" section width in the 225 measurement.
KumhoUSA.com shows a 9.2" section width on a 7" wheel for the 225.
Hankook shows a 9.6" section width for their RS2 245.
Unfortunately, my brother just got off the phone with Hankook directly and they're backordered on the 245/45/16 for a couple months, so i'm lookin' at moving to MXes for this set. I love MXes on my Miata, I was just hoping to stay with a 245 rear if I moved brands.
Has anyone gone from the RS2 to an MX or vice versa? I'd like to get a qualified A/B review as opposed to the "well omgzors I can corner like 40mph faster on these!!!!1!!!11!!!" review.
[Edit: deleted a couple lines where I just answered my first question re section width by reading the sticky for the 3rd time. Heh.]
