Anyone running these on STI's.. both the Evo and the STI need new rubber. Considering shodding both cars with these.

I have a quick question, the stock size is 235/45/17 is there a different size I can run to stiffen them up at all in the corners? i.e. 235/40/17, 245/40/17, or 245/45/17? I'm running the stock Enkei IX wheels.

Maybe I'm missing where it says a particular size has a better steering response? Not talking shear grip I'm talking steering response, that instant "dartiness." Thanks

Ive heard great things about the Z1 Star Spec's

My brother races on them and he only has positive things to say.

They are also much cheaper than comparable tires like King Dry's or RE01R's.
