2014 507 Coupe and PSS fitment

Time for new tires and I am wondering if anyone has experience specifically with stock 507 rims on the coupe and PSS in 265/30/19 rear or 275/30/19 rear. Any issues with rubbing? Pics?

Lowered? No? 275 is fine.

265's, however, will fit nicely and perform as much as you need them to. If you don't track the car you wont notice a difference and the 265 is cheaper too.

Not lowered, stock suspension.

As mentioned, you can run a 275 if you'd like. If it were my car, I'd get a 265.

My 507 runs 275-30-19 in the rear and has no issues. Looks great. I used cheap Sumitomo HTR ZIII's ($750 for a complete set front and rear) and they have a very square sidewall that shows no additional bulge from the increased tire width.

How quiet are the Sumitomos? How is the ride? I like the idea of a wider tire however, I don't want one that is real loud or super stiff.

HBC, how long have you had the sumitomos and how are they doing in terms of wear/life?

I killed my Pirellis in 5400 miles and it looks like I may end up doing the same to these PSS in about 6-7k miles total as well. I'm hoping I can just get another set through the warranty on them, but if not, I need a cheaper alternative. 1000 on rear tires per year is a bit ridiculous!

I've only had them on for 1K miles now so I can't really comment on wear, but they are quiet and that's paramount to me and the way I use this car. I'm not a race car driver, I don't get sideways going around turns, I don't throw the car around. I drive it. Mostly in a straight line. I had zero need to spend $1500 on a set of tires that will wear out in 6K miles when a less expensive, satisfactory alternative was available.

Is there any issue if I put 245/35/19 front and 265/30/19 rear onto the 507 stock 19" wheel??
