Are you going to get 17X11 rear TT2's? Yea, I've seen the price on the 315's and I've heard good things about those Sumitomo tires, I believe your talking about the HTR-Z's. A lot cheaper than any other 315 and good all-round performance.
What size front TT2's are you planning on running, 17X9's? If so then they would be the same size as your stock rims so the 285's should fit just fine.

I've ran the Sumitomos on my 98 T/A back in '99 on some Enkei Win wheels. I just put them on the '01 T/A back in June. They're a decent tire for the price, especially if you don't plan on getting alot of miles out of them.

I also have the Sumitumo's. I think for the price you can't beat them. They seem to be wearing ok. Not to bad in the rain either. I actually pulled a 12.86 @ 109 and change with a 1.85 60'. For a street tire they are fine. For the track invest in some BFG's or the Mickey Thompson's. Just my .02.
orderd my sumitohomo's 3 days ago from tire rack..got all 4 for the tt2's 17x9.5's in the front and 17x11's in the back got 275/40/17 and 315/35/17 for the back 441 shipped isnt bad at all if you ask me. and for a daily driver thats lucky to see the track maybe 2 times a year it will be perfect.

I have had Sumitomo's and Dunlop 8000's (came with the wheels) the Sumis are a good all around tire and have wear good. The dunlops were awful. So far I have ~7K miles on the Sumis and they are looking good.. the dunlops were dead @ 9K. However, if you value traction more than wearlife get the 555Rs they out lasted the Dunlops that I had on my car.
