Reviving this thread, the pursuit of the answer for this has honestly taught me a lot about understanding tire specs haha!
Ultimately, this thread answers any concerns since those of you who have tried it can attest to its fitment, but I have been on tire rack comparing all the different specs, and for what it's worth the info is a bit off on the site too it seems.
It came down to the fact for me that the tread widths match between the 325 Cup 2 and the 355 4S, and that the 325 4S is listed as N branded, but for the Panamera. However, while the tread width matches up with the 355, the section width goes up by 1.5" which on paper soudns crazy but it seems no one has had rubbing issues.
The really odd thing, though, is that the OEM Cup 2 tires are listed as fitting a wheel width range of 11-12", and lists the RS wheel at 11.5", when the wheel is actually 12.5".
But like I said, it all becomes moot since you all have fortunately tried and shared your experience. And one of the things I noticed about the 4S on my F80 M3 is that the wall does slightly taper in, and I love how the Cup 2 has a healthy look to its side wall, which the 355s clearly seem to replicate.
Now if only they had the premium touch sidewall for the 265...
