Then it looks like the answer is no, confirmed by Jonyxz actually using them in real life. I had thought maybe they would be too tall.

I know this is not the same, but on my 2014 335i RWD, I use different size all season tires in the winter which are about 0.3-0.5" different in diameter. It hasn't tripped the traction control yet. Factory tire configurations have the same diameter.

Would they throw off the factory ECU, though?
OP I would sure suggest you somehow confirm this before you spend too much money that you can’t recover if there’s a problem.

My wife’s Subie Ascent had 12,000 miles on it and replacing just one tire threw the computers into apoplexy. Wound up having to replace the entire set.

How bad is the scraping? Does going really slow help? How much is a new splitter every once in a while?

Mine is kissing the driveway starting parallel to the curb. I can only imagine the scraping stopped because my driveway finally ground off enough material from the splitter for it to clear 😭
