275/295/30-19's fit fine
Not sure what the issue is with peeps thinking 295's on a 10" wheel gives too much "bulge" or the wheel is too narrow...BMW puts 295's on factory M5 10" wheels
Bonus: Sidewall overhang now protects wheels from curb gnomes |

Thanks for this. I was going to go with 285s this spring but those pics look fine. I just hope Tire Rack carries 295 Michelin PS4S in that size.
Could you post a pic from the rear of the car about 10 ft away?

Those Kumho's are $217 per at Tire Rack compared to $325 for the PS4S, interesting.

^ very nice....
that extra width will certainly help get my extra 100 bhp and TQ to the ground. No rubbing up front that you notice when the wheels are turned?

I think the shorter (30 series) sidewall is the secret to not hitting strut perch. Been rainy here so not much analysis on PS91's yet but...they sure ride a lot better than the Contis that came stock on these wheels |

I stand corrected. Sorry about that. Didn't notice the 30 aspect.
