Pan Turbo HRE p40 21" tire question
Can you put 245/35 front and 295/30 back?
Or do you have to go with 265/35 and 305/30, which seems to be the more popular setup?
Is it a safety issue? Weight of the car being so heavy.
Maximum weight the smaller tires(245/35 and 295/30) can handle is 1565lb front and 1874lb back. Maximum weight for the larger (265/35, 305/30) are 1819lbs front 1984lbs back.
Or is it a performance issue?
BMW alpina comes stock with 245/35 and 295/30. And the specs are similar to PanTurbo.

Michelin PS2 comes in 265/305. So does YokohamaAdvants.
But already purchased the wheel/tire. Didn't mount it yet. And the setup by the shop was with 245front/295back. But now questioning the setup.
Trying to find out what the reasoning is behind 265/305 being more popular. And also the reasoning behind 245/295 setup.
