Tire brand for factory 17s

Is this the correct brand and type as the factory 17 tires?

The factory 17s are most common with the Goodyear RSAs 225/50/17 in fronts and 235/50/17s in rear. Bridgestones are also factory OEM tires.

I have 3 OEM tires. Should I replace the one tire with the same type of tire? I thought the ones on my car are RE40s. I can't check right now because my car is in the body shop.

Anything against buying used tires?
I found this at ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MakeTrack=true
why is the tread so shiny?
