Do you think a set of 225/45/17 - Bridgestone RE070's would be any good on the back of my S2 Elise?

I've got a chance of a couple of tyres.

looks a good tread pattern

I had Maxsports on the front with 48R's on the rear, and apart from being a little juddery around the Hairpin, the combination was fine.

I now have Bridgestone something or others that I had to put on in France on the rear and the Maxsports on the front, and again no probs on the road, but I will be fitting 48R's all round before the next trackday.
