Michelin PSS is bigger than regular tires in width?

speedfan · 08-27-2011, 02:20 PM

Hi everyone,

I've heard that the Michelin pss is bigger than regular tires.
Are they bigger as in terms of width? or taller sidewall?

Im planning to get the Michelin PSS tires.
My previous tires are Hankook Ventus V12.
Front 245/40/18
Rear 265/35/18

*** Edit:
My front were 235/40/18
I'm not sure which size to get for the Michelin pss front: 235/40/18?? or 255/35/18?

Thanks for any input so I can order them accordingly.

245/40 on the front is that way too wide ?

They have broad square like shoulders which normally leads about .2-3 inch wider.

I'm running 255/35-18 up front with no rubbing and I'm lowered quite a bit. Yes, Michelin PSS.
