Michelin Pilot Super Sport help

I am finally goint to purchase my new Forgeline wheels...20X10 front and 20X11 rear, and I am leaning towards the Michelin Pilot Super Sports. Anyone out there running these tires on the same size wheels that can give me some feedback on best size, and satisfaction on the tire?

My car is a 2010 SS, with Pfadt coilovers.

Thanks in advance.

David

How about a 285 35 20 in front and a 295 35 20 in back.
and put this on to help so you don't rub in front.

Contact Mike @ WhiteSide Custom via phone (972) 542-0255. They use the same tires for road racing.

Satisfaction....10/10. I've got them on three of my cars. My last set on my Roush mustang in 275/35/18 lasted 21,000 miles along with ten track days (road course). I've got a friend who has a 285/315 combo on his 1LE with no issues. I run a 285/35/18 square set up on my 1LE extra wheels. They don't run real wide and the somewhat rounded shoulder helps with clearance. Really will depend on your offsets 295/35 will be no issue at all on the rear.

Thanks for responding.

Will the 285s rub without changing the springs?

That is the set up I am thinking about..no rubbing issues with the fronts? Also do you do any track days with that set up?

Thanks,

I haven't run the track yet on these. In fact I haven't really experienced these at all yet. Car is getting worked on. I don't think I'll have any rubbing issues. I'll let you know. But the car won't be back for another month. I'm not hitting the track for about 2 months.
