Noticeable increased DSC Intervention with 265/285/35 setup?

[///M///]

Time for change of tires and I was thinking of going up a size especially on the rear. Anyone who has done this (285' on rear), did you notice a difference in how the dsc behaves? Last thing I want is more dsc interference. This is on the stock 19s.

Thanks.

Thanks.

It was the same diameter ratio as stock so it has the least invasive traction control. Although the car is supposed to "learn" any size of tires over time and adapt the traction control.
I have 265/285 Sport Cup 2 on stock rims for street and 265/295 RE71r for track. The Cup 2 feels less invasive but I don't ever take my car to the limit on the street.
If you want a great summer tire for stock rims then 265/285 Cup 2s are hard to beat!

Thanks. I was looking to get the Michelin PS 4S. Do the 285's make the rear wheels more flush with the fender? Right now I am running 12mm spacers in the rear with the stock 275's and was wondering if I'll need to downsize the spacer with the 285's.

Not sure, I'm lowered on Dinan suspension and it looks fine (no spacers).

Not with 12 mm. Should be close fit.

265/285 PSC2s and decreased intervention even with 500HP on stock 19s

Here's a link to my new tire review. My M4 is second car and used for spirited driving only. Almost no DSC intervention where it's was very frequent with the Super Sports.
