Thanks! I hadn't considered Yokohamas.

What do you mean when you say they won't stick out like the PSS? It's hard to tell from the pics but it seems the AD08s are more square and 90 degree as you mentioned. I always thought the PSS would stretch in slightly.. I have no experience with either tire/size but I'm looking into PSS in that size so I was wondering.

For me, I like the look of the 90 degree side wall. And I do drive this to the track. If your main use is for the street, go get pssï¼Œ Ad08 sucks in the rain

Thanks, Phil. I had to pull the trigger because I was down to the cords.

Next time I need a full set, I'll plan ahead and put fatter tires both in the front and in the rear.

I've been trying to find more info about running this size. I have Eibach springs and 15mm/12mm spacers at the moment. I love the stance of my car at the moment but not a fan of the stretched tyres! I would love to find a pic of a M3 running the 275/295 set up with Eibachs and no spacers so I can visualise what mine would look like. Would the wider tyres give the spacer look without needing them? If anyone on here has this set up please post some pics.

Is anyone running 295/30/19 in rear, with the factory 245/35/19 in the front? Any issues with the stability control system throwing codes because of the tire size change in the rear?

It will not throw codes but it will have a bunch of understeer with 245 in the front.

What would be the best for front to not have understeer?

Try to stay with the factory stagger of 20mm........Phil

I agree, I am running 255 front and it is not too bad. Need to get 275 fronts but also need wider wheels for that.

I see..so 255/35 is perfect for OEM ZCP wheels with no spacers? If height is lowered with KW v3, would it rub?

I am lowered and run a 10mm Turner spacer with the zcp 9" wheel. No rubbing and that tire is made for a 9" wheel so you are good. Many folks run the tire but different cars will dictate spacer. I could probably run a 12 but tried a 15 and it rubbed really bad on the rear plastic liner.
