Thanks for the nice comments...

Reason I went with 285s is side wall height comparison between front and rears:

245x0.35=85.75mm front sidewall height

I had to choose from
275x0.30=82.50mm or
285x0.30=85.50mm height for the rears.

And since Michelin PSS doesn't come in 285s I ended up getting the next best Bridgestone S04's

If you are going with 275s, I think PSS has the best looking side walls (beside the quality!)

With 245 fronts at 2/3s of lock left turns slight rub to the bolt head of the oil cooler vent. I removed it with no problems so far.

For the color of the wheels I'd say silver. Dark color wheels look good on silver or white color cars. Contrast is what shows your car and wheels best.

Put some pictures when you are done...

Happy mods!
