I have Bridgestone 18" N2 S02's on the rear, can I put a pair of new S03 Type Y on the front?

Is there a downside to doing this?

I wouldn't, too much of a differing compound issue for me.

yes you can fit them but I wouldn't recommend it nor would I like to drive it when pushing on

Thanks for the advice, it's got me thinking...

my problem is that I'm struggling to find anywhere in the SE that stock S02's, they all want to sell me S03's.

Got mine from Mytres.net, delivered to home, fitted by local tyre fitter £10/corner.

S02's N3 IIRC I bought all 4, I think they were about £560 or so. I know they are sometimes difficult to get hold of. But they only took a week for mine. Looks like they have the 18" variety in stock for around £117/corner if on 225/40
