I just need one for my Legacy B4 - 225/45/17
o/s front needs replacing, n/s front has 5mm left

- it's worn on the inside, so must get the geometry checked again

If I have to replace both - what's a reasonable (cheaper) alternative to S03's? - road use only

(track days in a much cheaper car with £15 tyres )

Autospeed in Reading has three in stock, on Friday. Couldn't get a fourth so had to go for SO3's.

well they are made of rubber - will they stretch ?

- probably going to try the Toyos so I'll have a part worn spare S02 left over. - perhaps I could get another 17" wheel & have a decent spare instead of that crappy spacesaver? (had to drive home from Manchester on it last summer - 50 miles at 50mph is no fun at all!)
