Anyone fitted 265 35 20 fronts?

I'm keen on trying Cup2 R on the fronts. Anyone fitted up 265 35 20 without rubbing? Standard height ZCP on 666M.

It's not your exact answer since I run 19s but you can check comparison sizes. I've got a 275/35/19 Conti 5P up front on a 9.5 BBS. Never rubs. I corner aggressive. 295/3019 in rear. ET is 25F 35R. Stock springs.

Your 265 is made for a 9.5 but a front 666 wheel is 9.0 I think.

IME; no Michelin Cup 2 in that size is not going to work because it is as wide as a regular Star Michelin PSS 285. You car run 265-35 PSS Star with no problem, maybe just a little trim to the plastic inner fender.

I just ran your numbers.
The MPSC2 265/35ZR20 specs are:
9.5in rim (9-10.5in) 10.7 section 27.3 diameter

The Conti5P 275/35ZR19 that I run up front:
9.5in rim (9-11in) 10.9 section 26.6 diameter

The section width on my 275 is wider than your 265, so it won't rub suspension or wheel lip. The wheel height (diameter) on your 265 is 0.7in taller than me, and I can fit hands all around wheel gaps.

Yours will fit. Look at the wheel gap left on this 275 front on a 9.5 BBS CI-R. I still need to install my Eibach V1 kit.

A 265/35 20 will not fit without rubbing the inner fender!

That's a 255/35 PSS

Low,
I pulled the numbers straight off TireRack for MPS4S and Conti5P. Are you ZCP on stock springs like OP asks? Your pic looks lowered.

No matter if stock or lowered there is no room for a 265/35 in the front.
You need to modify the inner fender in any case.

Reviving this because I am wondering if it'll fit on my F82. Just noticed my near 85% thread left front tires have the wires on the inside. My toe must be off because camber is at stock spec. I have Michelin Pilot Sport 4S 275x30x20s in the front (zero rub) but I can get a killer deal for 265x35x20s.

The sizing specs I got from TireRack are:

Michelin PS4S 275x30x20: Section Width @ 10.9 / Tread Width @ 9.8 / Overall Diameter @ 26.5
Michelin PS4S 265x35x20: Section Width @ 10.7 / Tread Width @ 9.6 / Overall Diameter @ 27.3

The overall diameter at .8" taller is a bit of a chunk but I don't have my front slammed either and definitely have .8" to give so I am curious if anyone out there has done this without issues on a 20" wheel.
