Bridgestone Potenza SO-3's Replacement?
I know this particular model Potenza SO-3 Pole Positions have been discontinued for a while now and wanted to get something close to it as a replacement.

Need something with the same sidewall dimension and performance. I'm more concerned about the sidewall since my car is lowered and can barely fit one finger in the wheel well that's why i need a somewhat low sidewall.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Potenza RE050A Pole Position is the direct replacement for the S-03 PP

Do they have the same exact sidewall dimensions?

Thinking of going with the PS2's but i'm concerned the sidewall on those might be too high?

I wouldn't worry about that as the S-03s were some of the widest tires in any given size
