275/30/20 vs 265/30/20 fronts for lowered F80...

[AlterZgo]

I'm trying to decide what tires to run on some new rims I'm spec'ing... Has anybody with an M3 successfuly run 275/30/20 on a modestly lowered suspension without rubbing and doing major front fender mods or adding in crazy front camber?

I'm coming from 265-35-19 fronts on stock rims and I'd like to get as much sidewall as possible so I'd like to go with 275/30/20s vs. 265/30/20s but it seems like many people are saying 275s won't work on an M3, but does not rub on an M4.

If you have 275/30/20s front on your lowered M3 and are not rubbing, I'd appreciate if you can share what size and offest are your rims and what brand/make of tire you're running. I'm planning on going with PS4S tires.

Thanks!

I ran 20x10 ET18 on 275/30/20 MPSS and rubbed inner fender liners on lock. Camber -2.3 on KW Clubsport. I see some getting away with 275/30 but mostly on 9.5 width, or higher ride height. Swapped to 265/30/20 PS4S and no rubbing at all.
