My understanding is that tread width is ultimately most important with regard to DSC? But, I could be totally talking out of my A** and happy to be corrected!
So your assumption is 35% of the General 275mm = 35% of the MPSS 265 b/c the tread width are equal? Sounds logical, just not sure if it's accurate? Sure someone else will chime in.
No, you're right. Damn! Obviously the 275 tire has larger sidewalls.

Well, in any event, once the front MPSS wear out, I'll be getting all MPS4S's in OEM size.
