437M size question for PS4S

I searched, but everyone has a different opinion it seems. I just need a quick answer.

I'm looking to maximize traction with the new tires, this will be my first set of PS4s, car is lowered on Eibach springs and I'm running 12mm spacers all around. I'm not looking to lose any sidewall because of crappy New England roads and I don't want to rub. Don't need any style points, I want function.

Do I go up to 265/35F 285/35R or something else?

TIA

That's what i went with, but i had to drop down to 10mm spacer up front to keep it from rubbing on the fender liner. The slightly larger diameter does fill the wheel well better, and the ps4s ride well and are quiet.

Stay at 255 / 275. I run 12mm all around as well, and the 4S provide more traction than factory PSS even at the factory sizes.
