Do I need spacers if my car is stock with the 19s 220M rims if I go with the 225/35/19 and 275/35/19? |

Clearance in the front seems to be more an issue of OD. The OE 245/35-19 is 25.8. When I put a rear up front, it rubbed, with and OD of 26.3. Now I’m using 275/35-18 with no rubbing, and it measures 25.6. The 255/35-19 is 26.0, which is probably very close, but a spacer should not be required for clearance

Can you take a picture of the tread? Perhaps they are a different tire marked as PSS? Do you know where they are made? Maybe the mold is in the UK or EU.

Click on "View all sizes for this tyre" The 265/35/zr19 tyre is the correct 98Y load rating for the rear tyres of the M3. The tread pattern is the same as the one you posted for your wrecked tyre. Last edited by SenorFunkyPants; 06-04-2011 at 04:37 AM.. |

Just finished my first day at the BMW HPDE today and these performed extremely well. They gripped well, braked well and had great turn in. They only got noticeably greasy during the last run of the day and even then I felt in control and just had to ease off a bit. Also, they held up very well with the wear level being about what I would have expected.
I'm no pro by any stretch but I was impressed as were my instructors.

I'm still figuring out if I can go with 245/35 & 275/35 setup since 265/35 is not available yet if ever, without any spacers with a stock setup. |

I'm about to need new tires for the rears, and I'm wondering if it would be acceptable to replace just the rears with the PSS. I have the OEM PS2s in stock sizes on VMR 19x8.5f/19x9.5r rims currently.
Obviously this would mean increasing my stagger slightly vs stock. I would need the 275/35/19 size, correct? Thanks

if you have 220M wheels, you can run it without an issue if you have 359 ZCP wheels, you can run it without issue It won't run. It should actually provide you with more grip and better handling My set up right now is 245 40 18 285 35 18 (OEM 18s) I plan on putting 255 in the front once these die out. My 220MOEM 19s have CS3 stock sizes, and my other 220M have PS2s stock sizes. I will put 255 275 combo, maybe push the rear to 285 PSS when those go out.

I'm running 255/35 & 275/35 on ZCP 19's. I rubbed on the rear bumper with 12mm rear spacers. After going from 15F/12R to 12F/10R I ended up with 10mm F & 5mm R. These tires are very sidewall meaty with a lot of rim / curb rash protection. Great tire!!!
