Taycan CT turbo tyres

[Taycanistra]

Hi to all of you.
My question is, can I put 315/30/21 and 275/35/21 instead of 305/30/21 and 265/35/21?

No.

The 265/35 already rubs at full lock in the front. Also the height is a % of the width. A 275/35 100% will never ever fit in the front.

Rear probably the same story.

275 tires can have different tread widths, with some close/same as a 265 depending on the brand/type.
I think it might work if you pick a 275 tire with the lowest tread width?
tirerack for example will list the tread width for each tire

The height difference is very small

prj seems to be confident it wont fit, he's probably right then

I mean, you can probably drive totally straight with it. But don't try turning

I had the 315’s on the rear of my Pan ST. It’s a LOT of tire. Wouldn’t make sense on daily driven EV.

There is more room to play with on the rear but the front is very tight. going from 265 to 275 adds 5 mm on each side of the wheel. On the other hand, 20 inch wheels with 245/45 have 30 mm larger diameter than your proposed 275/30 and they don't rub anything.

I don't have rubbing, although it is close. That said, I have the CT wheels on a turbo s sedan, and I don't know if any other well or strut differences between all the models. All I can say is it works fine on a turbo s, but you'd definitely need less positive offset in the front to go wider than 275.

I had 265/35 on my Turbo S CT and at full lock they were rubbing. Original Pirelli.

I then fitted Hankook ION and they were not rubbing, or barely.

The 275 most likely rubs quite heavily at full lock.

some of us run a square 285/35r20 for a track setup
