Picked up a set of OZ Racing Leggera HLT

19x8.5 et29 PS4s 245/35/19(on 10mm spacer)
19x10 et32 PS4’s 265/35/19

They are in the original colour from OZ.
Might change them up slightly darker in the future but for the time being I’m happy.

The PS4s runs really wide! I tend to run them one size down to get to the look I like.

Those look great, nice choice!

Are you sure? The PSS * spec is definitely wider than the regular PS4S.

I have both a set of pss* and ps4s mounted. the fronts may be about even, the rears are definitely wider, and apart from the looks you can definitely feel it the way the rear wont let go or rotate as on pss*s.

I see, I checked the front and assumed it was the same for the rear. It appears we are both slightly incorrect. Tire Rack shows the following measurements, which show the PSS front being wider and PS4S rear being wider.

PSS 245/35ZR19 (93Y) XL Star BMW - 9.8" Section Width, 8.8" Tread Width
PS4S 245/35ZR19 (93Y) XL - 9.8" Section Width, 8.6" Tread Width

PSS 265/35ZR19 (98Y) XL Star BMW - 10.7" Section Width 9.4" Tread Width
PS4S 245/35ZR19 (98Y) XL - 10.7" Section Width 9.6" Tread Width

I would note that the section width of the tire doesn't necessarily have much to do with grip on acceleration and braking.

I suppose it may be right, the numbers. Although, for some reason, when you put the two sets side by side you don't really notice that much of a difference between the fronts but you certainly notice the difference between the rears.

When mounted, the PS4S for some reason looks quite beefier. On the 763M and 437M wheels I prefer the look of the PSS tires. Same for handling. It's the sure footed fronts that make the difference, and it's the right balance front vs rear. You can tell the M2/M2C suspension was tuned with that tire in mind.

The PS4S upsets that balance (handling), and you get some floaty feeling (possibly because of the softer sidewall and the narrower tread of the fronts, not sure about the tread depth), although the PS4S does provide better traction and braking. With the PS4S tires I tried 3 mm spacers for the fronts and slightly less toe-in in the rear to get the balance about right, and it feels quite solid then, although it still doesn't get you the crispier responses of the PSS* tire.
