Anyone running wider tires?

Those are some meaty tires. Have you had them long enough to be able to really tell a difference in range/efficiency?

My car was never configured for efficiency even from the factory ... I'm getting about 2.58 mi/kWh with the wider wheels. But over-all efficiency over the entire life of the car shows 2.81 mi/kWh for what it's worth? I've experimented and know for sure I can get up to about 3.0 mi/kWh if I really wanted to.

I'm still weighing the pros and cons of going to lower aspect ratio tires when these eventually need to be replaced. With these widths, the available tire diameters are either slightly bigger or slightly smaller than the factory tire diameters.

It's possible to go up to 265's in front with 285's in back:

More photo? That fitment looks spot on!

It's still a work in progress though. I want to see how things work out by either a) moving the rear tires inboard by another 5mm or b) reduce the tire aspect ratio by one size on both the front and the rear tires.

Can you also provide your wheel specifications with offsets please?
