Instead of 245s in the back. Just curious.

I'm unwillingly running that combo right now.. Lol.. I just gotta wait to get a new pair of 275's to stick on the spare 18x8's I have.. It's pretty retarded, but it actually performs well.. Not much of a difference from the 255's, just a little harder to turn the wheel..

Is there a reason why you want to run that setup?

Not really, other than it seems like it would help swing the back around at autocross.

I have done some autocrossing/Solo Sprint in the past. These cars are a pig compared to a S2000 while autocrossing lol. With that setup you can almost get the back end to let go/swing out alil. I have 275 upfront and 235 rear (Not on stock GXP rims). I use the rear 17s pulled from a late model impala LTZ wreck
