Yokohama size
When I bought my car, the previous owner had Yokohama ABS dB S2 tires installed. The problem is, the rears are 225s. They are about half worn out, and I want the correct 245 size anyway, so I'd like to replace the rears with the same tire, just the correct size.
On Tire Rack, there are no 245/45/16 available for this tire. The closest I see is 245/50/16. Should I go with this size?
Here's a link to the size chart...http://www.tirerack.com/tires/Sizes.jsp?ma...model=AVS+dB+S2

So it looks like I have to buy 4 new tires to get the correct size (to avoid mis-matching front/rear).
How about the Bridgestone RE750? Will these grip better than the Yokohama's I currently have? And would the correct size be Front-205/55/16 / Rear-245/45/16

So how are the Bridgestone RE750's on dry grip, and how are they on tread life? Also, is the proper size Front-205/55/16 / Rear-245/45/16 ? I've read a few people running 225 for the front, is there a benefit to this?

The Bridgestone RE750 would be a better wet and dry handling tire than the Yoko's you have had. They are also the longest wearing performance tire that I have seen. I have had them on my own car for two years and they still look new. They are also a quiet smooth riding tire.
I also do have a 50.00 rebate on a set of four tires till 05/06. If I can help let me know.
