I just got a set of 275/30-20 PS4 and they are significantly wider in bulge than the 275/30-20 PSS in my brother's M3 wheels -same wheel width (10") on both. |

Attached are a comparison of the specs PS4S vs PSS. Is this what you're seeing - that tread width on PS4S is smaller (11.5") vs PSS (11.7").

Maybe something is off with the specs published by TireRack...

I went back after your post and checked my own sizes (275/30-20) and its thread width now shows a .3" less width than the PSS. Used to be reversed. I remember going thru several sizes and noticing the same increase in tread width from PSS to P4S. If the specs were revised then I owe you an apology, stand corrected. The difference in width is readily apparent in real life. |

Looks like the PS4 have a slightly smaller tread width but exact same sectional width as PSS. referring to 265/30/19 and 295/30/19 sizes. So, I will bump up to 275 and 305 to get closer to the same tread widths.

The tire is now past the 500 mile "break-in" period so finally decided to attempt to try to use launch control. Launch control used to produce nothing but a smoky burnout for me. Now to my surprise, it just links up and goes!! Soooo impressed!

Just ordered a set, I will take pics. I ordered the next width up from 265/30 and 295/30 to get the same tread width as my current PSS. A little more rim protection might be an added bonus.

Just put mine on. First pics are the new 4s tires 265/30/19 and 305/30/19 replacing 265/30/19 and 295/30/19 PSS. ET 20 and ET 40 rear. In retrospect I should have gone 265/35/19 to match sidewall height on rear, the OCD among you may not get over it but I guess I can live with it. Can't comment yet on performance and comfort was compromised since they inflated to 40 psi. No rubbing on an moderate ACS spring drop. I have pics. NO stretched look at this size on 19x9.5 and 19x11 rims.

Apologies for the filthy car and crappy photos but I figured this might help some people out there. This is 255/35-19 + 285/35-19 PS4S with 12mm spacers on stock suspension. No comments on performance yet as I've only driven a few miles on them, but coming from Conti 5Ps I'm really looking forward to these tires.

Debating if I should wait until October 1st for Michelin to drop the 295/35/19, or just go with what's available now, which is the 275/30 and the 295/30...
Curious as to how much space is left for those of you running 275/30 + 295/30 setup... |

I am running 265/30/20 and 295/30/20 and the ride comfort has not been compromised in comparison to the stock 19" setup. I do like to point out that I have the adaptive suspension.

I know I can fit 275/35/19 up front with no issues... But I've heard from quite a few that 295/35/19 may be a bit much for the rears - again, only because of the shape/size of the PS4s... |

I will be needing new tires soon, have 20,000 miles on my RE71R's, been great but time to move on to less noise and softer ride. I was thinking of the new PS 4S, 255/40-19 front and 295/35-19 rears. Just found out the 4S rears will be available end of Oct. My M3 is stock adaptive suspension, no spacers, stock wheels. BTW, I'm running 265/35-19 front and 305/30-19 rears now.
