Put the winters back on for the season. 245/35/19 on 19 x 9.5 +25. IMHO it's too stretched. I would have gone with 255/35/19 and dealt with the rub in front.(melt the fender worst case).
The sottozero tires wear out like butter so I will be getting a new set in 255/35/19 soon enough.

I find this interesting because I recently put 245/265 Michelin PA4 on my 2021 M2C and have no rubbing in front as far I can tell so far, but many people have complained of it with the PA4. |

BTW, the rubbing, other than being annoying, was never so bad that it caused any damage to the fender liner after a season. |

The only reason this particular setup rubs, even though the tire is identical to the OEM front one, is because the profile of the PA4 snow tire is a lot more squared at the edges compared to the summer tires. PS It's a bit of an exaggeration to say the tire on that side actually rotates slower from a bit of plastic rubbing... Do you realize the forces that would be required to do that? |

It's annoying, but luckily it didn't cause any damage. In Italy, by law, winter tires must be kept until April 15, but when they exceed 15 ° C I change them for summer. Luckily there are still a few days left ... |
