A lot of peeps seem to recommend other tires but if you drive I colder weather and may see snow these are great. I had to drive home in the snow one day because it snowed while at work and the traction was excellent and this is compared to my SUV on snow tires so I would not discredit these tires at all. Additionally they have excellent treadwear and cost half what a set of Michelins or Continentals retail for.

Did you have any rubbing issues? Did you have to relocate the harness in the rear running the 35?

Zero rubbing at all, and the wiring harness remains untouched.

In case it's not clear to anyone, and it appears that it may not be to some, a 35 series profile is not a fixed sidewall height. It's the sidewall height as a percentage of the width of the tire, that when combined with the rim diameter, makes up the overall diameter of the tires. A 275/35 20 will not have the same sidewall height as a 315/35 20 for example. So, saying you want specific number for the sidewall without taking into account the tire width and rim diameter is pointless. You need to look at the resulting overall diameter of the tire as a combination of all the factors.

I changed to nitto invos that are 275/35 front and 295/35 rear on 10 and 11 inch rims....because thats what was suggested to me by a shop that has fitted wheels to my cars for 10 years. Very happy, looks great, no rub anywhere....

What? Am I missing something, don't 1ss and 2ss 1le's use the same tire?

Confused about that too , the sizes are the same , why wouldn’t they work on a 2ss 1le? That’s what I want to get when my stock Goodyears are done as a daily driver

I'm guessing he clicked on a drop-down menu somewhere and the data wasn't loaded yet for the 2SS, although I'm not even sure why there would be a selection for both since it's irrelevant?

I'm wondering why you resurrected an almost 2 year old thread to bring that up

I didn't resurrect an almost 2 year old thread to bring that up. I was searching for info on 35 sidewall ratio tires like I'm supposed to, because if I started a new thread someone like you would have told me to do a search.
