I sort of heard about my letter today
*stays tuned*

Ive run with 255 ZII's quite a bit and its not bad especially considering the car is really setup for the hoosiers. If I dedicated the car to a set of 285/295 whatevers then I would be just as balanced. You'd soften things up a bit but it doesn't have much effect on AWD accelerating.

Really? without any flaring/pulling? (just rolling). I'd like to try it and run some local events that way, see how much it helps, and maybe add a little fun back to it. Maybe show up to Crows with them this spring and see if anyone notices. lol

Honestly, the STAC should really consider allowing 265 wide tires in STU for the AWD vehicles, IMHO. Especially with the other cars they recently allowed in STU. I would support that.

Yeah I ran 18x10 +38 RPF1s with a 5mm spacer and 285 Hoosiers with just a roll, no pull. Street tires should fit even better, as they'll be narrower than a Hoosier.

We've dyno'd our ASP evo on the same dyno as an STU vette. I've driven an STU 350z. I see no reason to not allow 285's for everyone. There is no logical argument for limiting AWD to 245 tires at this point.
