These tires are extremely close in size and will suffice for the winter months since we've had relatively mild winters recently. I don't plan on driving in extreme weather anyway. (we have an older Mercedes C450 4Matic and a leased '18 X1 for now).

Are those A/S 3 or A/S3+? I've heard there is quite a big difference between them. I was considering the A/S3+ but couldn't find the rear ones in stock anywhere and am going to just go with winter tires.
|
Good catch! They're A/S 3+ M/S (Mud & Snow)
|
Nice. Can you tell me the sizes of those tires?
|
Sure. 275/30/ZR20 (97 Y). It's also listed on the 2nd tire picture if you zoom in.
|
So you went with a square setup? Also aren't those not the same size as what's recommended?
Should be 275/35ZR20 for front and 285/35ZR20 right? Also load rating of 97 is below recommending. Not saying anything is wrong with your setup, just curious on how well it will work as I may consider the same thing

Regarding your load index rating concern, I'm far from a tire expert, however just crunching the numbers according to the tire Index/load chart, a tire with a 97 load index (speed rating Y (186mph) in this case (caries a load of 1609 lbs each tire) × 4 tires = 6436 lbs.
Given our F90s have a curb weight of around 4370 lbs, I don't think you have anything to worry about. So unless you're tracking your car with five 400lb people while pulling 2gs, you should be fine
