For 2002 they slightly changed the size of tire. It was 205/50-16 on 2001 and for 2002 it became 205/55-16. The 50 and the 55 designate the aspect ratio, a 55 is 5% taller than a 50, taller for a slightly improved ride, one of your issues with a 9-3SE. You'll also have a better selection of brands as the 55's are a much more common size, hence better avaiibility and better pricing.
