Had my 255/35/20 PS4S's fitted today, and I've done a little driving:- A quick summary for everyone! -
Main things:
- Speedo is fine; It overreads by ~1mph now across all speeds, so it's a big improvement here
- As expected, no big change in geometry so there is no change in torque steer.
- Rim protection is excellent - Managed to kerb it for the first time in months (Sods law, that!) and it didn't touch the wheel.
- Good increase in traction under all circumstances - Wet, dry, straight line, corner exit etc.
- Nice comfort increase; Sport is now similar to Comfort in terms of secondary ride.
- Steering doesn't seem quite as sharp, but that's to be expected.
- Seems like less or at least less noticeable road noise, which is a nice touch considering the extra width.
Next time I'm at a meet with another Fk8 I'll see if I can do some further comparison / measurement
