Tire rack doesn't sell old tires - this is an issue you run into with retailers. If TR has stock that is more than 1-2 years old they blow it out at 1/3rd price and advertise it as such.
I was going with the 265/35 because they only seem to have 275/30s which makes the fronts a good bit shorter than stock and the rear tires (25.6" vs 26.8"!) I guess I'm just not sure when that ratio becomes an issue but I would love to have that extra rubber in the front...

That TR info was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks, Chris!
