Just think of it as extra curb protection.

Unfortunately, I do not think 245s will fit up front without spacers. Staggered tires suck. I have 235/40/17 on all 4 corners.

Besides the track tires, the 328Ci has seen the stock a/s, 1 set of Yoko ES100s, 2 sets of S-03s, and these PS2s. I have driven on many other tires, including the PS1s. The PS2s blow them all out of the water.
I think the shitty ES100s chilled my image of el cheapo performance tires...

Thanks John. I guess I'll just pull the trigger on the PS2's. As I have said before, I don't put many miles on the 330i anymore, so these tires will still be in great shape when I sell the car in ~2 years.

That reminds me of what I really didn't like about the Hankooks...no rim protector. Running the narrow tires on the RX-8 wheels...you could hear adn feel it every time you set one down. When stacking, it was metal on metal. Of course, at one of the last tire changes, a wheel fell outside down and left a bunch of nicks in the wheel's finish.
