I think Lou (flowrider) had that size, but Bridgestone S04, on the 08-10 wheels with no problems or complaints. There shouldn't be issue on the 2012+ wheels either. Those would probably be my goto for that size. If you want PSS you'll need 275/30 or 275/35 (unless you actually got the runflats). You do get wider tread (comparable to most 285 size tires) on the 275/30 PSS.

^^^^I did, and the Bridgestone S-04 combo worked fine for me, and for another ISF owner neighbor of mine. I started a thread about it. However, at least one forum member tried the combo and was very vocal about his dislike of it. I ran 245/35 front and 285/30 rear on stock '08 wheels.
Now, I'm running RCF wheels (9s & 10s) with S-04s in 255/35/19 and 295/30/19 and the extra wheel width and tire heft make it that much better.
My Old wheels and tires are now on an IS-350 with no complaints from the owner.

<br >So I installed the OEM 255's from the rear onto my front rims and installed the 285's on the rears. They actually fit really well with minimal side wall bulge. Handling is perfect and rear grip from a start is not nearly as unsure as with the 255's.

^^^^What make and model are your tires. I can see the fronts are Michelin - PS2s? IMO, especially with a performance tire it is not a good idea to mix differing brands and models of tires front to rear.
Tires have different construction and the handling characteristics may be adversely affected when tires are mixed,

The rears look a lot more flush with the wheel arches, are you running on spacers?
