pilot sport 4s on staggered style 193

lurker14 · 03-22-2017, 05:27 PM

I would like to try out the new ps4s but there is only one size available for 18", 245/40.
Stock calls for 225/40 up front and 255/35 out back. I am xdrive so I am not worried about losing a little width in back and the slightly larger diameter should make the speedo more accurate.
Is there any reason I should not do it?

So you're wanting to go square tires on staggered wheels??

Get the regular PS4?

No reason not to do it, speedo is almost dead on with 245/40/18. The smaller tire in the rear with the larger in front make it handle a significant amount better. 245/40 will fit just fine on the staggered 193m wheels.

Lol it's a half inch stagger. 245 fits fine on 8" and 8.5"

thanks for the help guys, that is what I am going to go with. They are not listed on costco's site but i called and they said they can order them, $191 each, works out about $30 more expensive buying through them than tire rack because of the tax but they are great about the road hazard warranty.
I am going to stop in and order/drop off my wheels next week though it might be a while before I switch to summer tires.

Too bad you just missed the $70 off at Costco by a couple weeks. Tire rack has a $70 rebate that your local Discount Tire should match though.

Costco gave me such a hassle with putting non-rft wheels on a car with factory rfts

I have heard they can be a pain but last winter when I dropped off my wheels to get winters mounted they didn't say anything about them being go-flats and they went out of their way to mark which corner each went on and bagged them up nicely for me to take home. I dont know if they just have a good staff or it is because they were off the car.

Have you had any rubbing issues with 245/40/18 ? I'm thinking of getting a summer setup with pilot sport 4s as well but I'm not sure if the front won't rub on style 193 rims.
