I would have made a lot of mistakes fitting new Michelins to the RSe10s if not for the insight I've gained from this thread. I think I now have to wait to see what kind of dimensions the 18-inch Pilot Sport 4S possesses (once it is released) in the 225 and 235 sizes. Wish I weren't so brand loyal -- there's a lot to be said for the Firehawk 500 tire -- but it comes from years of experience with Michelin on other cars and lots of bicycles.
simple answers. if you want to put a 245 on a 8 inch wheel you will be fine.
not optimal, but life will not end..
if you track stuff, well you can do the same. but it will suffer. really if you track at all. all this is void as you will kill any tire you put on. until you address front camber.
now that is done. if you are driving on the street, 245 on an 8 inch wheel is fine.. whether it is a pss or ps4 does not matter. you are not that good, and you are driving on the street..
Michelin makes great tires, but i have killed 8 of them on track days. not the tires fault. camber..
for the street, pick a good max / gt tire. you will be fine..
i would give the firestone indy 500 tires a shot, as i am going to put them on my track car after i finish on my mich pss tires.
