Thanks guys. I was reading a similar thread from someone who posted in August. It seems the general consensus is to keep both on the axle the same. Think I might change the rears to Falkens. I wonder who's open round here on a Saturday...

Hi there, Just joined the forum recently. Had the car for about a month after trading in my Celica T-Sport so be nice! Had a blow out on the motorway last weekend so I've driving around town with the space saver... not very nice let me tell you. The reason for this is because I'm having difficulty trying to find the right tyre. My car came with Bridgestone Potenza RE050A 96W 245/245/18 but nobody seems to have them. Did a quick check on the Bridgestone website last night and they're not even listed on there! I've been offered an RE040 96W, an RE050 96Y and an RE050 100Y. They all have slightly different groove treads in the middle. My question is will this make much of a difference if I keep the other tyre the same or should I change both tyres? Thanks
