Default xterrain on 18" rx330

Has anyone jumped up to the michelin xterrain tires on their rx330 with 18' OEM rims?
275/55/18
These are about 5.5% taller so the speedo will show slower numbers.

I love this tire on our 01rx300.
(this may need to be moved to the TR forum?)

Even if it would fit in the wheel well, I think 275 would be too much of a difference from stock. See this tire calculator to see what it would do to your speedometer readings:
