Wider tyre options on the stock 19" ?
I'm keen to see if anyone has put wider tires on the 19" multi-spoke wheels?
The current (stock) set up
245/35/19 - Front
265/35/19 - Rear
I want to know if the wheels will work with this set up?
255/35/19 - Front
275/35/19 - Rear
(Mainly to improve traction)
If anyone has done this, let me know and if there were any issues.
Thanks!

I'm running 255/35/19 and 275/35/19 winter tires on the standard wheels. They fit just fine.
The extra 5 mm on the outside should not make a difference, but I do feel the car is dirtier than ever on the sides. Might also be the weather, which is wetter than when I had the regular-sized summer tires, of course.

I want to put on some Michelin PSS. Just want to check if anyone has done this!
