Thanks that is useful. I take it I can plug in different tire sizes and it will self calculate?

Yeah, you can enter anything. Just tab out of the edit box after you change a number to make it update.

I just replaced 235/30/19 325/30/19 MPSCs with Supersports 235/30/19 305/30/19

Car is still in the shop but the guys say no major issues so far.

Yup NB is 235/35 + 305/30 and RS is 245/35 and 325/30 ... the latter is not yet available in the Super Sports.

I'm working on it! - I think I'd like to try 245/325 on my narrow body GT3 when the Super Sport comes in that rear fitment.

Supersports fitted.

All good. Tire still edges the rim quite well.

Just got it home, heavy tropical rainstorm. No impressions yet. But no TC lights due to different size tires.
