Trofeo R sizes & KW CS setting help needed

I want to switch my cup2 to Trofeo R. I will go with a 265/295-30-19 or 265/285-35-19. Do you think which one will hold better ? Since I?m using traction fully off I don?t think it will be a problem in with both setups.

On a side note, I?m using KW CS v2, however I couldn?t still figure out what should be my track settings for front and rear bump. I really appreciate your feedback.

Anybody? Tire size question isn?t about the specific brand actually. Anybody who uses the same sizes?

Always found it best to start with KW recommended track setting and adjust from there

I'm running 265/35 & 295/30 on 19s. I have zero DSC and TC issues. IIRC, you're running a 10" wide rear wheel? The 295s will stick out ~0.4" past the wheel per side. You should be fine but it could change how the tire breaks away at the limit of adhesion - slightly more abrupt compared to the same tire mounted on a 10.5-11" wide wheel.

You mean their default setting on the manual ? I?m trying to clarify because it wasn?t written as track setting.

I?m running 10? 437m oem wheels. Is there a specific reason why did you prefer 265/35 in the front instead of 265/30?
