Tossed up between the Pilot Sport 4S and the World Cup 2 Michelin models - only issue is that they don't come in all available sizes, so which would you go with for the Camaro SS with the given options?


Reminder: Please, place yourself in the scenario of a daily-driver, but at the same time, price/money doesn't necessarily matter as much as the performance I can get out of them and a reasoning as to what you chose would be nice as well.

You'd do 285 in the rear instead of 295?

If your still on factory rims you don't want to go any larger then that.

I'm not, I changed rims and increased by .5", I'm now 20x9 in front and 20x10 in rear.

Thinking of doing Sport Cup 2 as 265/35/20 in front and 305/30/20 in rear as it seems it'll fit just perfectly?

Between these two I would run the PS4S in 255/40/20 and 285/35/20 as others recommended. They are the widest sizes that Michelin specs for the factory wheels. The Cup 2 is more of a track tire and doesn't do as well as the PS4S in rain for a DD. Neither tire is rated for cold weather (freezing temps and/or snow).

I'm running the PS4S in 255/40/20 and 295/35/20 on 9" and 10" wheels and I'm very happy with them.

I live in the desert, so rain is never my issue. Even if it does rain, I have multiple cars and I don't bother driving the Camaro due to the fact the car likes to hydroplane too much. Also, any reason why you're not going up to 305's in the rear? Your 10" wheels should be able to allow maximum of 305, but you're stopping 10mm short.

Any reason why you're not going wider and stopping approximately 20mm shorter on the rear tires since your 11" rims would allow higher up to 325mm?

Ahh, max you can fit is a 305 in that instance and that's why you're going with it?

Also, do you know if there's any major driving changes bumping up your front tires from 245's to 275's? I know bumping up the rear to 305's from 275 allows for greater traction, but is the front tire the same or would it ruin the turn radius and what-not by making them so large?
