2012 Diamond White C63 Coupe
255/35ZR18 Michelin PSS

Hey all,

Dropped my car off at the shop for some stuff, and realized my tires are beyond shot...curious, for those of you on the stock OEM 18" wheels, should I just go ahead and get the 255/35ZR18 rears or should I look into 265's? I have KW V3's and H&R front/rear spacers.

Advice/opinions?

Hoping to be able to able to cut some nasty 1/4 times with these tires and a Wavetrac LSD soon

I have the 265 PSS on mine and it's not lowered. No issues, and every little bit of contact patch helps. :-)

Love my Wavetrac - best possible mod without spending $$$ on a blower. Yes, my tune is great but the Wavetrac is better.
