Any ideas why Michelin does not offer the PSS in any width larger than 285 (e.g., no 295 or 305) with a 40 aspect ratio for the rear of a staggered setup on 19-inch wheels?

Any chance they will add those sizes anytime soon to accommodate the new Mustang?

40 aspect ratio is like a percentage that is proportionate to the width of the tire, anything past 285 will get a huge sidewall with the 40 aspect ratio if that makes sense, 305/35 is roughly the same as a 275/40 sidewall

Michelin does not offer the Pilot Super Sport in 305/35/19 either. Actually, they don't offer ANY aspect ratio in a tire wider than 285 for 19-inch wheels on a 2015 Mustang. If you want wider than 285, you can't have 19-inch wheels; you must do 20's.

you'r right the PSS is limited on the 19" fitment and more options on the 20" even though their 315/35/20 is out of stock at the moment -_-

but there are options for 19s like the NT05 and NT05 R if your dead set on 19" tires
