Larger Tires On M Sport Wheels

[Keyser Soze]

I've just purchased a 550 with the M Sport package, but looking at the tires, they look like the rims are wider than the tread of the tire. When I need to replace the tires I'd like to go up one size on the fronts and rears. Is there enough room for 255's in front and 285's in the rear to fit without rubbing or throwing off the traction control sensors?

I'm thinking about doing the same thing and would love to hear other's opinions.

I guess not, lol

As long as the finished diameter does not exceed the stock by more than, I think 5% or something like that, it'll work. I don't remember the exact amount, but more than that will throw everything off. :)
