Sport Cup 2 question

Just purchased some BBS FI-R's and im looking for tires. Since the Super Sports are on back order im looking at the Sport Cup 2's. The sizes im concidering are...

275-35R19 and 295-30R19.

Do you think id be fine running a 275-35 up front?

that front tire will be noticeably taller than the rear. this will not only screw with the DSC calibrations, but will look awkward. I would suggest 275/30 up front.

On V3s, you'll have no issues.

You can run a 265/35/19 or a 270/30/19 up front.

Only on the HAS kit will you have any rubbing problems

Are you talking about the Michelin super sports Versus the Michelin pilot sport PS2s? The PS2s are more expensive but someone told
Me they are the older version of the cheaper and better super sports. Another HRE guy told
Me the more expensive ps2 ones are better. Would make sense that Bmw use a better tire (Cheaper one which is super sports) but have no idea why PS2 would be more expensive unless they are truly better.... Opinions?
