Hoosiers only come in 245's. I decided I don't want to modify the fenders too much, so I will try to stick with the 265's. 245 hoosiers will have pretty much the same grip as the A048's in 265, if not less. I think with the A048's, I will have more grip than the hoosiers and less treadwear.

Oh, btw, I don't know the life span on the advan or the hoosier, so don't get mad if I am wrong about that(I still think the advan will last longer). But I think the advan, even tho it is a little more, will prove to be more cost efficient and better than the hoosier in the long run.

Read a test Yokohama did on their performance tires on a HKS Kansai modified EVO VIII. Tires used were stock A046 on Advan RG wheels, New Advan Neova AD07 stock size on the same RG wheel. A-048 245/40/18 on TCII wheels. Track times were:
Stock A046 1'28"164
Neova 1'26"977
A-048 1'24"649
Pretty interesting what good tires will do.
