A wider and taller tire might be a bit harder to break loose in 3rd gear, so that is a benefit. Also, although the speedometer may not be accurate, you may actually find it's faster to 60 since you can easily do it in 2nd gear without having to bang the rev limiter.
A bit late to the party but Iāve attached a couple pics of the FR and RR stock wheels wrapped with 245/35 20 Continental Extreme Contact DWS06. No TPMS light, rubbing or any issues. It appears comparable to the 30 series rubber; profile wise. I was a bit cautious at first but donāt have any worries meow. Cheers!Ok I do like the stock wheels and probably plan to keep them but not a fan of the thin tires. Was just wondering if anyone tried 245/35 or 255/35 tires on the stock wheels yet? It will give about 1 inch more of rubber protection and comfort compare to the stock ones and with stock height Iām pretty sure there wonāt be any rubbing issues and maybe even with a slight 1 inch drop in the future it should be fine. I do understand it will be bigger and the speedometer will be off a lil with bigger diameter wheels.
