Default 2008 Q7 3.6 - tire question

Hi, all...

I have a stock 2008 Q7 3.6 with 255/55 r18 tires and want to know if anyone has a set of 265/60 r18 on theirs.

I have a set that I would like to put on, but concerned about rub if hitting a bump. I’ve done the math and it seems like it would not matter, just hoping for a real-life example. Thanks!

Those are 1.5" larger OD tires, or 0.75" radius. You'll possibly rub under compression at full lock, and possibly at other times. So, maybe it will, maybe it won't.
