Micheline Pilot Super Sports - 315/35/20

Is anyone here running these on their car? I have some forgeline DE3Cs coming to me from DV8 in 20x10 and 20x11 wrapped in Pilot Super Sports at 285/35/20 and 315/35/20 and wondering if anyone here has some experience or issues with them?

Thanks!

Lots of issues with them.. tread peels off like an orange and they're just basically your run of the mill tire. You should've went for the Kumho's and saved all that money.

Ha! Please tell me you are joking. Big spaces and grins can never be trusted! ;-)

I'm mainly worried about rubbing with that fitment.

I think the biggest issue you'll have is not getting the sh!t eating grin off your face on how bad a$$ they'll look.

I'm curious what you find out since I was planning something very similar. Was thinking of going 295 in the rear though because they're a wide tire and to keep things closer to square.

Running Pilot Sports on the SLP wheels, but they are a full thumb narrower as the ones you're expecting...

No issues other than that they didn't really cope well with snow and ice coming out of the garage (180 degree turn and pretty steep).

I was thinking the same as well. I do run 295s on there as well and they are pretty wide. No doubt it is closer to a square setup. I'll keep ya posted.
