Philadelphia Car Meets
Anyone interested in the star specs keep in mind they are not a long term investment! Yes they are a great autocross tire and I will continue to run on them, so as to clarify I'm not trying to stray anyone away from them.
I'm running max camber on the stock bolts right now and I have even tread wear across the width all the way down past onset of hitting the tread markers, but granted I hit I believe 7 autocross events on the same set which helped distribute the wear. But the biggest thing is just that, 7 events and they got abused!! Granted I never rotated and the rears are looking a little more fresh so I should hopefully survive another half autocross season on them, fingers crossed.
Point of story, they are soft. They perform like hell, and I love them and I'm sure anyone else will too. If you can continue to swallow the price on them every 12-18 months then go for it.
Also, I'm on a 18x9 +35 255/40 wheel/tire combo, no rolling on fenders, with no rubbing front or rear and I'm sitting on the rubber out back as far as ride height goes. Soon to be pushing em out with 15mm spacers all around and massaging them to work. If you can fit 265, get em, my only regret with my purchase honestly.
Hope this helps

Since when have tires been considered an investment? You use them abuse them replace when the the wires show. Maybe thats just me.
lolololol
But if you can, 265's would be more ideal. But I am sure you knew that already. Why not throw some 275's on there?
