Michelin Pilot Super Sport 2011 E90 M3
Hey guys,
I am replacing my stock continental 265/35/19 and 245/35/19's with the new PSS. The only issue that I am having is that Michelin makes a 245/35/19 for the front and they don't make the 265/35/19 for the rear. Do you all think that it will be an issue if I go with a 275/30/19 for the rear? Please respond soon as these are coming in the next day or two. I am primarily concerned with TPMS issues but any info would help. I contacted several retailers and all of them tell me that the PSS is not available in the 265/35/19 or the 275/35/19. Everyone swears that the 275/30/19 wont be an issue in any regard. Help please! |

Not sure where you are looking but the PSS is available in 275/35/19... I'm running them on my car currently and they are available via Tirerack. Personally I would upsize front and rear and go with 255/35 and 275/35 as mentioned previously in this thread.

295/30 fits on the rear on my RAC RG63 (10x19 ET22). I run 275/30 up front (9x19 ET22). Tires are Yoko AD08, they run pretty wide as well.

Thanks for the Help!
Thanks for the help guys. I found the 275/35/19 PSS for the rear and I am going with the 255/35/19 PSS for the front. Thanks for the advice and Tire Rack really has their stuff together, took me about 5 minutes to complete my order, I ordered the tires at 12 today and they will be at the installer by Friday morning, only cost 5 bucks more per tire to have them expedited. I'm so glad that I didn't listen to the idiot from Discount Tire who tried to tell me that the PSS didn't come in a 275/35/19. This forum is great!!!

My car came with PS2 tires and I just recently changed the rear tires to new PS2. Seem that PSS is better than PS2 and I am thinking to change the fronts to PSS when they wore out. Is it OK to have PSS fronts and PS2 back? Obviously I want to eventually change the back tires to PSS too.

are the pilot super sports more squared off at the shoulder like ad08s or re-11 or are they rounded off like the ps2's.

Not as square as RE-11 or AD-08. I wouldn't call it rounded though just not as square

I don't recall the PS2... it's been a while since I had them on the car. If memory serves me, I would say similar but maybe slightly more square.

Yes? Looks like the pss is similar to the re-11 but not as square as the ad08. Hard to tell.

Definitely not as square as the RE-11, pictures aside. I have had both on the car over the last 6 months and the RE-11 is noticeably more square than the PSS, IMO.
