summer tire

What is a good summer michelin tire for my 2013 tl shawd with 18s.I picked up snow tires so now for next year I want a new tire besides the stock one. My other question is how big can I go on rim size and still turn the wheel and drive normally without messing anything up on the wheel wells or something.

I have Mich PSS, they're known as being the best and I love them. That said, I doubt I'm using anywhere near their potential and I'm sure my lowly TL would've been fine with a much lesser tire such as the new Hankook EVO's or Conti DW's.

Tire Test: Cooper Tires Zeon RS3-S and RS3-A - Motor Trend

I had the RS3-S for half the summer after getting rid of the Michelin noisy A/S 3 that had to be balanced and re-balanced 3 times in 3 months and made the SHAWD corner like a boat.

The RS3-S is the most quiet highway tire I ever had, and seriously made the vector diffs go to work on the corners to keep the car flat and leveled. Cooper gives a free 45-day road test, so I had nothing to lose. After ~2000 miles I am keeping them on.
