Seems like people are having slight rubbing issues with the PZeros but not with the Michelin's.

I ordered 10 for the front and 15 for the rear since I have PZeros. May reverse them when I change tires

Just a heads up, I ordered from R44 performance in the UK, the guys with the lowered Brooklyn Grey M3 all over the internet. They must have a supplier here or do drop Shipping from the Us or something as I had the package in Brooklyn in about 24 hours!. Amazing delivery time

Which car do you have?

And is this when moving forward?

10mm F is pretty conservative. Hec, people are running 15mm Front and are not reporting rubbing, except in reverse with the steering wheel locked.

G80 with 826M and P-Zero. Front rub at full lock. It's not that bad 😄. Maybe use a heat gun on the liner but I'll switch to Michelin PS4S tires soon

So are the PZero a slightly taller diameter? More tread depth? Strange that they are rubbing while PS4S seem to be fine.

It’s just a way chunkier tire. You can tell if you look at pictures. My G80 came with the Michelin’s, and they almost seem to have a slight stretch.

For the sake of a few MM I'd rather not have rubbing and damaged arch liners. I've run low cars with poor clearance in the past and it's a real pain in the ass. It's so nice when things just 'work' correctly and don't make funny noises or having to 'watch it' in certain scenarios

Can anyone confirm what spacer is best for those of us who lost the tire lottery? 10 / 15 is stated above, does the 15 work in the back? Seems like this would be a big step. 10 / 12?

I have p zeros and tried 15mm all around. Big rub up front, broke some plastic fins in wheel well vents. 15 looks great all around. Took off fronts as I couldn’t stand rub, happened a lot

No rub in the rear with 15mm? With passengers, or a big dip?

And I'm quite curious if 15mm up front rubs like this with the Michelins.

Thank you for sharing your experience! I am thinking a 10 / 12 may be best for me as I have P zero & also opted for the tire protection as I'm in New home sales, and am rather frequent in attracting nails, screws & bolts- just a matter of time.
