Default What size Fuzions do I need?

I want my speedometer to be accurate and don't want to lose too much steering response by putting on too fat of tires on my stock rims.

Is it better to maintain the same size of 205/55/16 and 225/50/16 or because stock S02's are fatter than usual, go with 225/55/16 and 245/50/16?

Stick w/ 205/55/16 in front and 245/45/16 in rear. This will keep your speedo accruate. No loss of steering response.

GrimReaper is correct on the sizes. Unfortunately they are on back order for the rear tires.

How much is the price difference between the Fuzion and S03 for the rear? Seems like it would be pound foolish to get Fuzion's because S03's on stock wheels are not that much money.

Does your steering feel heavier with 225 furzion on? I had these tires on my car and the tires feel really grippy sort of like I had tank treads and the steering felt heavier.
