Default 18/19 CCW's here

I wrapped my CCW's with Michelin non run flats. They are 35x285 front and 30x315 rear. The only issue I have is the Michelin 30's have a rib that sticks out on the side wall and the rib makes the tire appear to stick out of the wheel well more than perhaps the Goodyear non run flats. Just something to consider. Good luck, Ron

I have CCW T10's that I put the Michelin's on as well. These are 305's and only stick out a little bit. BTW, mine are 11.5" in the rear. Check my sig pic.

I have PZeros on my Coupe. My son had the BFGs on his FRC. I felt that the BFGs gripped better then my PZeros.

So yes I believe they are good.
