The only two option for the rear tiers in Pirelli Trefeo R are 315,30,20 and 335,30,20 while the original size is 325,30,20. Not sure which way to go 315 or 335 for the width?
 
Original 325/30-20 = ((325*.3) x 2)/25.4 + 20 = 27.68 dia
315/30-20 =((315*.3) x 2)/25.4 + 20 = 27.44 dia
335/30-20 =((335*.3) x 2)/25.4 + 20 = 27.91 dia

One is 6mm taller (3mm on radius) & 10mm wider (5mm from center out) and the other is 6mm shorter and 10mm narrower.

Safest bet would be to go to the 315/30 - they'll definitely fit.... but obviously a little narrower than stock.

I would assume the 335/30 would work too but you take a small risk in rubbing?

Agreed.
 
PSC2s are wonderful tyres, why switch?

I have switched to Trefeo R after Michelin cup 2 on my other cars and it’s like day and night difference, much more grip and confidence.
 
Interesting, I’ve had the opposite experience, got rid of the Pirellis on my McLaren and fitted PSC2s
