The 275/35/18 tires, according to Tirerack, have a load rating of LL which means a max load of 1,201 lbs. Anyone run these on a full weight e92 M3? Should I be concerned? ..the 295/30's have a SL rating (1,477 lbs)
If you are full weight, that's 900 lbs per tire. I think you could easily get 600 lbs weight transfer under heavy breaking which means 1200 for each front. That's awfully close to the max.
