I did a search the only people I saw running the 255 size were 03 300a's Is anyone running oem wheels and traction control with the 255 and 235's front? Sorry if I missed it in the search.

I have an 04 w/ TC and 255/55/18 KDW2 with the stock tires in front. No T/C issues whatsoever, drives just like it did with the OEM tires.

I have a 300B and running 255/45/18 (fronts) & 255/50/18 (rears) no problem with the traction control. The key is to leave the car's rake the same.

Same thing 300B, lowered, stock tires on front, 255 KDW2s on rear, been that way for about 4 or 5K miles and i have not had a single issue with noise, T/C, or anything like that.

Thanks all, Need to get tires for the rear and don't know if the KDWS are still going to be made in the 235's I think all sizes are going to the KDW2's.

Just had KDW2s installed last Friday, traction control is fine with the slightly larger rear tires. I remember reading in a thread somewhere that there is some five or so percent tolerance either way by the computer of the difference in spin rate between the front and rear. Sizes purchased:
Front:235/50YR-18
Rear:255/55VR-18
