Keep in mind I am running 5/15mm spacers as well.
Yes - I was looking at them laying on your garage floor the most. They look right, but so close I think a 275 would be stretched more than I would care for. I recently upscaled the tires on the front of my E85 for this very reason - I like a nice flat side wall look the best. Personal preference I know.

275 has a tread width of 10.8 so I thought that extra .4 on both sides would give it the look I like - but looks like I was wrong. I'd hate to be north of a grand in to find out I hated the look. 285 is 11.2, so that should get me there I think. I just worry about the side wall options and what I will give up in ride. I'd ditch the RF's though, so that should help level the playing field a little too...I hope. Ditching them made a world of difference on my E85 for sure - night and day.

Decisions, Decisions.........
