Tyre size for 763m wheels

Hi gents,

I have just purchased the 763m wheels which came with Pilot Cup 2 tyres. I am planning to go through this set of tyres over the next 35-40 days (3 track days and 2 road trips), following which I would need a replacement.

I would ideally want to go with PS4S, however I believe the front tyres size needed for the 763m wheels are 265/35/19 and I can't find a pair of PS4S in that size. The rear (285/30/20) is not a problem.

Can anyone suggest whether I can maybe use 255/35/19 at the front or would it have an adverse effect on handling?

Thanks!

The 265/35R19 PS4S are offered, so you should shop around a little more to find some.

That being said, the M3/4CS can be had with PSS fitted from the factory and when it so does, it has 255/35R19 fitted in front with 285/30R20 in the rear, so there shouldn’t be any issues with you going with those sizes in PS4S.

I put 255 PS4s on my 763 with no issues. I ordered the 265 originally but they were huge. Someone said they were designed for rear figment. They looked massively different to the 255 when side by side.
