295/35/19 vs 305/30/19 Michelin PS4S
Hey guys many of you like me are probably deciding between 295/35/19 tires and 305/30/19. It seems like it wouldn't make much difference or feel much different, but that can't be farther from the truth. The grip levels are increased, ride has gotten even more compliant and there is ZERO rub. I paid the additional and I think knowing what I know now, I would've gone 305/30/19 from the beginning! I hope this helps the community and shows you how millimeters can change the look of the car overall. Let me know if you have any questions.
The Wheels: Signature SV104 Gloss Black F: 19x9.5 et20 R: 19x11 et40 *This is 295/35/19 pictured above *These 3 pictures above are 305/30/19 above JD |

I ran into this same issue, and the dramatic difference between the two sizes is specific to the PS4S. The 295/35/19 is a Mercedes-spec tire with a tread width of only 9.8". Compare to the previous generation Pilot Super Sport, for example, whose 295/35/19 had a tread width of 10.4", or the 295/35/19, Continental SportContact 6, which with its 11.6" tread width is even wider than the 305/30/19 PS4S at 11.5"!
Nice looking car!

How did this setup age for you over time? Any rubbing? I'm about to run the same ps4s tire combo on a set of BBS LMs 19*9.5 et22 and 19*11 et37. I'll also be running Ohlins R&T coilovers. Currently the car is on swift spec R springs and OE ZHP tire/wheels but I've never been super happy with the ride.
