The bumps seem be dampened more, with a lower tone. Until the backs rub. |

Maybe we can all initiate a petition for Michelin to start producing 285/30/19s!

Tempted by a set of HRE R40s from an e90 M3.
18x9.5 +19 F 265/35/18 Hankook RS-3 18x10.5 +22 R 285/35/18 Hankook RS-3 Will they fit? I would rather not do any fender work. I will likely add camber plates/ coilovers down the road. The offsets seems somewhat aggressive compared to the arc-8s... Still riding on the stock wheels/tires and notice the rubbing on the oil cooler vent or whatever already with the stock 235s. This would be an expensive test fit...Let me know what you guys think. Thanks in advance. |

I am daily driving them now although it is pretty warm in Southern California. Around 50 degrees or below they have very little grip. The tires need some heat in them. On mountain roads the amount of grip is really staggering! The tires also have no emphasis on ride quality so it's a little harsher than the stock Michelins. When it cools off, I will definitely switch back to the stock setup. Overall I'm really happy with them.

They are really super sticky once warmed up! They also have a much more progressive and predictable breakaway behavior once you push them beyond the limits of grip.
If it's raining however, the Michelins are fantastic. I haven't tried the RS3s in the rain, but I've heard they are not very good at all. Last edited by Blue55; 07-29-2012 at 06:48 PM.. |

I have an opportunity to buy my friend's track setup off his e46 M3.
He has a square set of SSR Competitions, size is 18x9.5 et37. I know the optimum square Apex setup is 18x9.5 et35 so I'm not sure if the 2mm will nix this setup. I could run a spacer, if so what should I get? Can I buy a 2mm hub-centric spacer? The tires are currently mounted on 275/35/18 RA1s. I believe these will not fit on the fronts but if the experts could chime in it would be much appreciated. thanks Amit

I saw for sale a set of CCW Classics in
18x10 +25 18x12 +25 Cann you guys advise if these would fit properly with 255 front and 285 rears? These wheels are sweet, they have 3" lips and would go well with the car |

front should work... wow those are massive rears... and I think 285 might be too thin for a 12 " wheel? check out the tire mfr recommendations.
