So I need 265/30/19 295/30/19 and my rubbing should be completely gone and my traction should be restored. Also trying to figure out how exactly to get euro or gets MDM. Are they the same? If not which is better ?

Switch to 265/35/19 front and 295/35/19 rear. Get a proper alignment, problem solved. 305/30/19 is too wide for ET35 11" and the front to rear OD ratio is incorrect. Get Euro MDM coded, you'll have more fun as well.

305/30's aren't square with a 265/35 and are generally 0.1" smaller. A 305/30 does another 3 revolutions more per mile than a 265/35. A 315/30 is a better rear tyre size that's 0.2" taller than a 265/35 but it's only available in a Michelin Cup2 and needs an 11" 43/44 offset wheel to prevent scraping.
I've never had any issues with this combo with Euro/GTS MDM. As far as square setups go, winter wheel/tyre options are square with 255/35 19's front and rear free of MDM issues. |

I had a mass air too high engine code they cleared. (It comes and goes). The next day MDM works great. Traction works great. No wheel spin sign. I doubt the mass air code had anything to do with it. I'll just call it a miracle. Still have rubbing on the rear. So I'll consider switching to smaller tires. This things been a headache...but a fun one lol

Once you have the issue again disconnect your battery for one or two minutes. If it goes away get a full sw update at the dealer. For your rubbing, try first more camber before buying new tires. |

For track, some do run 275/30/19 and 305/30/19. And just because someone runs it, doesn't mean it's the best setup. We've done enough F8x to know what works.

Ended up going with 295/35/19 MO1 spec and 265/35/19 front. Been perfect. A friend switched to a 275 front and liked the grip better so I tried it. Same issue. (And they rub the fender well enough to slow the car a bit in corners. ) Now I'm trying to find a track tire in my size and most seem to be in 285 or 305 35/19. Suggestions?

Track tires typically run much wider in the same exact size. Now that you know what fits your car without rubbing, look at the actual tread width and section width specs for track tires and compare them against your existing tire specs. You might find some "265 mm" track tires actually measure the same width as a 295mm street tire.
