I don't see how 295 is so bad on a 10".
BMW themselves took out the GTS with a 10" wheel and a 285 rear tire. 295 is pretty close to that!
10mm more will destroy the handling of the car vs the GTS which was built for exceptional handling?
ZCP is sick; great wheel. I like it too.

I have not denied that the 295 would work on a 10" wheel. It's not going to destroy the handling. It just won't be as good as it could be. A 275 or a 285 is a better fit. Are you disagreeing with that statement?

By the same token I will ask - is a 295 going to provide appreciable performance improvement? Will a 275 "destroy" the car's traction? I believe the sole motivation for going to a 295 in this instance is the improve straight line traction.

I don't want to argue anymore. I stated my opinion. I'll stop now.
