Anyone running 245/45/20 tires on all 4 corners on the SS model ?
I have a 2SS/RS and I want to replace the P-Zero's with Continental DWS all season tires on the stock wheels. The Continental DWS 275/40/20 rear tires are on back order but it seems there are plenty of the 245/45/20's.
What are the pros/cons of running the 245/45/20's on all 4 corners ? My car is a daily driver that I have no intention of taking to the track. I see some people on here running the 245/45/20 size winter tires on all 4 corners so what about all seasons ? |

I'm running 245/45/20 on all four wheels with my winter tires. So far I haven't had a problem with that set up.

You'll be perfectly fine running 245/45/20 on all 4 corners. You'll just be giving up a little traction off the line and around turns (oversteer - back tires sliding out). |

and if nothing else, so that you could actually rotate them.....IF you get anotherset of FRONT wheels so that all four WHEELS are the same as well.

Yes. I sold a set of four fronts to a member up north who wanted to use them as with snow tires.
