Cupra Wheel Downsizing (Recommendations?)

Pretty sure they are.

Nope. Only 19” and above as others have posted. I think the older Pilot Super Sport was available on 18”, but they’re not as good in the wet. Not sure how the PS4 compares to the PSS.

The new Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport I think may come in 18”.

EDIT:
No Michelin Super Sport on mytyres listed in 235/40 R18, but the Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport is at £116.

I'm afraid that the PS4S is only available in 19" and up. You can get 18" PS4 (non S) though which is also a great tyre.

Yeah that's my bad. Still the 4 isn't a bad tyre.

It’s just a bit soft for track work, so is the PS4S, but the PS4 more so. Not that the original poster is going on track necessarily.

The Pilot Cup Sport 2’s are available in 18” incidentally.

Also have a look for Dale Lomas' bridge to gantry blog and video on his 280 st. He went from 19s to 18s butts he could save Mooney on psc2s but he did not have the brembo big kit on his car.

Hee is a member of the forum still I think...

Yeah if it's just a daily driver with the occasional hoon round some lanes, then you probably wouldn't notice the difference between the 4 and 4s.
If it was doing track work, I'd look at a separate set of wheels and proper track focused tyres.

If you like the style of the 19" 280 why not try a set of 18" from the 265.

That’s what I meant in my above post

17" 18" or 19" this may help you decide http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Article/The-differences-between-17-18-and-19-inch-tyres.htm

Interesting, but they all were the same width, the Cupra 19's are 235 so not really representive of the OE Cupra wheels. I have had no problems in wet, but I also don't have the Goodyears as in test, on PSS,s but soon to have PS4S's fitted, the best overall tyre for the Cupra IMO and of many others too.
