Tires Decision

[wcharon]

Hi Guys... I need some expert advise as i am having a nightmare trying to decide on which tires to go with as over here in PR i am very limited.

Long story short, I have my Vossen HF-5 (20 x 9.5 +25 / 305/35 +45) since 2 months and i placed an order since on Costco for Michelin PS4S on 275/35/20 and 305/35/20 and after 2 months they told me that they received the 275 but the 305 have been discontinued and they don't have options to offer. Tried other places for the 305 but no luck.

The original Diameter specs are front 27.1 and 27.7 rear and the car is original and not lowered. At the moment i don't have in mind to lower it if i am confortable with how it looks with the new tires and stance. Will like to stay with the 35 as the roads here are not good.

Getting around i found these options but i am stuck on which route to take:

1. Kuhmo Ecsta PS91 (260 Thread):
a. 275/35/20 and 295/35/20. Diameter is 27.6 and 28.1
b. 275/35/20 and 315/35/20. Diameter for the 315 is unknown as i can't find te model.
c. The 315 is not the same model but he told me they are very similar. Don't know if this will poke which i don't want.

2. Toyo Sport Proxies (240 Thread):
a. 275/35/20 and 295/35/20. Diameter are equal as the Kuhmo 27.6 and 28.1

Questions are:
1. Which route and decision will you advise?
2. Will the 315 poke on the rear if it really seems equal on the design?
3. Should i wait more for the Michelin 305?

Thanks in advance.

Are you able to provide us with a list of tires that are available to you? So far, aside from the MP4S, I would stay away from all other tires mentioned here.

The Falken FK510 is available in 275/35-20 for the front along with 295/35-20 or 315/35-20 for the rear. They are fantastic tires, again much better in all conditions than everything else mentioned here.

Thanks for the feedback @ApexRaceParts … I received good news from Costco just a while that they received a call from Michelin and are shipping the 305's via flight so should have it here at final of this week.
