So as to not thread jack the fitment thread, I have another question.
Currently I have 255/35/19F and 275/35/19R PS4S tires and all 4 have ~4/32" tread remaining. So they still have some useful life. Also, due to Covid, 275/30/19 PS4S tires are out of stock at my go-to source. The wheels I bought came with a set of 275/35/19 Pilot Super Sports and they have 9/32" of tread on them (basically new) but were built in the 36th week of 2014. The wheels are also Hyper Silver and my wheels are Sonic Silver Metallic (slightly darker but I like the look on Space Grey). My question is, would it be OK to run the 255/35/19 on the 10" wheels on the front? Then, once I wear these PS4S tires out, I will replace all 4 corners with 275/30/19. Meanwhile, I will try to sell the Pilot Super Sports and the 4 9" 359s. Anyway, just wondering if this sounds line a good plan or not. I also thought about keeping the 275/35/19 Pilot Super Sports and then buying a set of 275/30/19 PS4S for the front but I dislike having dissimilar rubber front/rear on a performance car. Thank you all again for any suggestions you may have. Cheers,

Is there a reason you want the 235/30-19 for front?
That's awfully narrow for the car

Man, the financially prudent thing for me to do is buy a set of 275/30/19 SuperSports for the front and run the set of "new" 275/35/19s in the rear...
But wait, what am I thinking, I own a BMW with an S65B40 V8...

Yes, 255/35/19 will fit on a 10" wheel. it will have some stretch for sure, but no biggie.
