Got some 16's to stick on the front and will probably go Toyos all round but the rears are still pretty good and are the S03's so what should I put with them, obviously s03's aswell or will other Brdgestones be ok and what size should i go 225 ?

Cheers

225/45ZR16 is what I run, only 0,4% off std dia. 7,5" or 8" rim width is fine. pt

I also have 225/45ZR16s on the front - same as the SE Griffiths - why not put Toyo T1Rs on the front now and when your SO3s expire put 245/45ZR16s T1Rs on the rear too.

Chers guys, Jigs I was thinking of doing that but wasnt sure about mixing tyres I guess its ok if you are doing them in pairs?

As they are both road tyres with similar levels of wet and dry grip they should be fine when fitted in pairs - a mix of track (R888s) and road tyres (SO3s) would be unacceptable IMO.
