Ordered some 275/30/19 re11s for the front

Test fit next week.

Due to a limited options i am trying a 275 on the front. If it dors not work out, i will use them as rears on a different set of wheels.

If they work i am going with a 305 on the rear.

So if it works you will put different tires on the rear? Wasn't aware RE-11 comes in 305 size.

Yes, but they are not listed on tire rack anymore. They were on there a couple of weeks back.

Do you have the updated fender liners that supposedly provide for a bit more clearance?

No, the a6 265/35 and the 275/30 re11's look like they will fit according to tirerack.

Re11 10.7 on a 9.5 wheel
A06 10.4 on a 9" wheel

So, how much is the move to a 9" wheel on the re11 worth? Does it bring it down to 10.5?

could you recommend Michelin PSS 295/30 R19 for the original rims in the back or is the clearance not wide enough??
cheers

Plenty of room for 295s, but it is not optimal to mount them on the stock wheels.

I have the 295/30/19 PSS on a Stock 1M with stock with OEM wheels and they rub over compression bumps and there is some rubbing over bumps if the suspension is loaded... I plan to add camber and expect that to solve the issue, but this weekend we will see how they do at the track... MAHHAHA

You can get a 315 on the stock wheel with a 5mm spacer in the rear.

The tire is on the wheels now but it will be tuesday before the test fit. The tire is almost an inch wider than a 265/35 hoosier so this may not work.
