[QUOTE="Robert M, post: 10508407, member: 9628"] I have only driven the car about 1-1/2 miles since the tire/wheel install, so I have very limited knowledge, but the one time that I did turn it up, the car felt competely different. With 275's it would spin quickly and feel as if it was on roller skates, maybe even marbles. Now, it still will spin without much coaxing, but instead of spinning while pushing forward as it did on the 275's, it spins while thrusting forward with the additional tire width. Remember, I went for a 275 to a 335 on the rear. That is 60mm, 13mm = 1/2. As for the 335/30's, they are still available through TireRack and other tire outlets. It is the 275/35's in a PS2 that are impossible to find. Michelin is changing from a PS2 to a newer design Pilot Sport, I think a Super Sport or something, but they have not listed the 335/30 size for that style of tire yet. Pirelli also offers a 335/30 in a P Zero Rosso which is a good performance tire, however, it specs at 13.8" vs the PS2 13.5". That .3 in width could be the difference in looking acceptable and fitting tight or not looking acceptable and touching. There have also been some people who have done this Alcoa widening project, used these 335's and couldn't get this set-up to work for them. They had tire contact issues that they could not resolve without thicker spacers. R [/QUOTE]
