Installed 245/275 Michelin Pilot Super Sports on my '12 F, hot dang!
Decided to spoil my beautiful girl on Valentines day with some new shoes.
Went down to American Tire Depot and got hooked up, 4 new Michelin Pilot SS, 245/35/19 front, 275/30/19 rear, TPMS rebuild kit, Road Hazard Warranty, 4 wheel alignment, tax and installed for $1245 OTD.
Only downside was I had to wait 3 hours since the tire delivery guy mixed up and only brought 1 front tire, he had to go back to the warehouse an pick up the other 3.
The upsizing fits amazingly well on the '12+ F wheels since they're wider than the previous years, there is no buldge. Just flush with the rim.
Driving impression, haven't gotten too crazy yet but boy are these much more quiet and comfortable than the OE RE050's, also these babies grip like crazy when flooring it from a stop. They just grip and you rocket off, no more spinning and traction control blinking. Loving them so far, also they track perfect on the freeway, maybe because of the alignment. Highly recommend this size.

Are those 15mm spacers I see hiding behind the wheels?
Yup, I'm running H&R Trak+15mm all around without any issues whatsoever even with the upsize.
As far as the deal, they are offering $70 instant off any 4 Michelin tires now till beginning of March I think. The manager knocked $45 off my alignment because I had to wait 3 hours. After shopping around they were much cheaper than anyone else including Costco.
