[born2boost]

Hi guys...

I just wanted to know if any of you have tried 285/35/19 Michelin Pilot Sports on the rear of your CSL's?? Are they any better or worse than the 265/35/19's....?

Please let me know

Thx!!

285/35/19 will have around 40mm bigger diameter than 265/30/19 and 20mm bigger than 255/35/19 so it may well rub much easier.

If you want to run 285 tyres look out for 30 profile if I were you

Ok...thanks a mil for the info guys!

but its much heavier then the 265/30/19 no?. And would the stock csl rim fit on the 285/30/19? would this have any advantage to change to 285? better grip i suppose or?

As far as I remember Loaded is running 295 in the rear but don't have info on rim offset. It was a dream to drive with 265 in the front and 295 in the back. With 265 in the rear it was quite tail happy :thumbs:

I'll piggy back on this thread for similar sort of inquiry.

Will 245/35/19 at the front and 275/30/19 at the rear cause any type of issue?
