: Joan, we have found that due to the diffrent tire sizes, and the handling nature of the Coupe and roadsters, if you mix tire types you will most likely experience very quirky handling (especially in the rain). The S-02 however is an awesome tire for your car, but I wouldn't mix it with any other tire types if you are concerned about safety, thanks

I couldn't find the correct size OE Dunlops so I put a set of S02s on the rear on my M roadster. Handling has been quite querky, asc lighting alot and although I haven't driven a lot w/the present combo (and not any miles in the wet)I will going back to the Dunlops and will not try mixing again.
