Anyone have a picture of their car with these tires?

I was looking for the 275/35/19 but they're on backorder I guess so was going to go with the stock tire size, but I haven't seen anyone with these on their car so want to make sure I like the look.

Thanks!

Going from a 40 aspect to a 35 aspect ratio is close to an inch difference in diameter. I don't know if they make a 275/40-19, but if they don't stick with the stock size. 265/40-19 was the stock size in the front on a SVTPP car, so I don't know if we're talking front or rear tires.

I don't think they make a 275/40/19

I went with the stock size on the MPSS as the 4' were only available for the rear when I did mine.
The front's look small to me, not wide enough.

PS4S do come in 275/40/19 and also 265/40/19 (checked on tirerack's site).

I do know on the old PSS 265/40/19 on the factory 19x9.5" wheels it does have a stretched look to it (actually a bit more than what I was expecting since usually Michelin tires are generally "fatter" than what their sizes say) so I would think the PS4S in the 265 size would be probably the same.

I think if I could do the front's again, I would do the 275 as the 265 just don't look wide enough on the rim.
I tried taking a picture, but it would not post up.

I am running NItto 555 G2s on the stock 19" rim on front and I went up to the 275/40 and it looks really good. The 265 just didn't fill out the tire like I wanted. I understand you are talking Michelin, but it was a good improvement for me on the G2s.

As a side note I am running 305/35/20 rears on widened OEM rims to 10.75 and these tires compliment the fronts very well. Sidewall profiles are nearly identical and I am pretty anal about this stuff.

Here's a 285/40-19 MPSS on a 9.5" front wheel. I thought it fit fine. My car has since been lowered more and I'm running a 285/35-20 on a 10" wide front wheel and there are no issues. Both sets are same diameter.
