Michelin TB-15 size for 930?

Another question.. any experience with best tire sizes for 9 and 11x15" BBS E50 on the 930?
Currently the car has 265/50-15" BFGoodrich T/A's rear and 225/55-15" in the front.

I think the rear wheels are a bit high. Will 295's fit or 270? What looks best??

Mike

I ran Michelin 295/40/15's on 11's and 215/50/15's on 8's or 9's on my DP. I also have a new pair of 270/45/15's. The 270's are about 1" taller than the 295's. Either one will work. The photo is with the 295's. I'm selling the 270's if your interested.

I just posted some pirelli Pzeros which are for 11 and 9 inch wheels. I heard they last a bit longer than the michelins
