Your feedback has me reconsidering as I know the stock 295 / 265 tires that come with the 343m's are quite large and, in addition to the spacer, might not be the best fit for my 550. Wondering if I'd be better served buying 343 reps with new 275-285 / 245-255 tires (plus center caps & TPMS).... argh... so much for this being a simple purchase.

Any input/insight would be greatly appreciated --- perhaps I'll re-create a thread back on the main boards as this would no longer really apply to a WTB thread.

Thanks again for the insight.
In a couple of days, I'm going to perform another test fit with the spacers. The M5 wheels you see in the pics have the original Michelin Pilots mounted on them. I'll take more pics.
