    I'd like to upgrade the look of my car with larger wheels however my concern is a reduction in traction due to low profile rear tires. Can anyone share their experiences and thoughts?

    That slightly lower profile should not affect off the line traction. Tread patch will be the determining factor. If it's Pirelli vs. Pirelli, there's not much in terms of wider tread. The 335 section tyres will only have a tread that is .1" wider than the OEM 315 section tyres.

    Sidewalls don't add or subtract traction, they determine how the tread let go when the traction limit is reached.
