Will the shop allow a test fit? Usually places like discount have a 30 day return policy.

I know a guy has fit 325 on his M6 with an aftermarket 20x12" wheel.

Hey R, can you shoot me over a pic with the 305/30/20 on your 343M wheel? I think I will be going in that direction when I buy tires in a few months. Also, is the diameter pretty close or does it affect MPH any?

Thanks bro!

We both run PZero 305/30/20s

Hey! I got a new M6 a few weeks ago and I definitely need better tires. I don't know why mine came with MPSS and not P zero being the competition package, but oh well.

I want to upgrade to sticky tires and I had Bridgestone RE11 on my M4 before and they were a lot better than mpss. What do you recommend?

I wanted to go from 265/35/20 and 295/30/20 to 265/35/20 and 305/30/20, is that a better option? What is the best option for sticky tires? I want to launch off the line and not spin so much. Bridgestone stopped making RE11 and I can see the pilot sport cup 2 has good ratings?

Or Michelin pilot sport 4S?

Go with 275/35/20 and 305/30/20 for better traction/grip and also almost the same understeer the stock car is... I had good experience with MPSS but looks like MPS4S has better grip and last longer

No for sure it does not have better grip that Cup2 since Cup2 has a lot softer compound (180 vs 300 UTQG)but Cup2 is track tire while 4S is street tire so has longer life

Do you think the 4s can handle 630whp without losing traction on launch? Probably a tough answer to know for sure but I've heard it's very similar to mpss. Honestly, I wish they still had Bridgestone RE11. Those were amazing.

Neither MSPP nor 4S have soft compound like Bridgestone RE11 but if your concern is just launch, you can go with Cup2 but again it's soft and doesn't last for long time.
