According to my current issue of Car & Driver, it says minor trim changes are in store for the 2012 ISF... whatever that means... so pretty sure no tire changes...

Default 2012 isf

Just read that the 2012 ISF will come with 265/35YR19 tires in the rear , illuminated home link buttons and coinholder is gone .
Question : can those size tires fit the 2011 stock rims?

BTW the source is motortrend.
2013 will be redesign .

i just have to know how you classify 300 for a tire expensive? the stock michelin ps2 rears are far more then that.
