Black series tyre size choice

hi all
is it ok to use 295/30/19 instead of 285/30/19 on stock wheels?
any issue with the traction control system?
thx in advance

its only about a 1% difference. typically the system only gets cranky with more than 3% or more to compensate for changes and differences between tire brands and tread depths/wear. As long as it'll fit your good.

I've run 295/30-19 on the stock wheels as it's the only size available on the PSS. While it works, the sidewall is pretty soft because the wheels aren't wide enough, and you'll feel it during hard transitions. I ended up going with 19x11 rear wheels to solve the problem.

No problems with TC system. I ran 255 fronts and 295's rears, and finally settled on 265 fronts and 295's rear which is a better match.
