285's up front are going to cause the rear end to slip out much easier. the reason for the staggered setup is to induce understeer (which is much safer, tho not as cool looking admittedly) so unless you like to drift anywhere you go when you are driving hard, i'd keep with the slightly staggered setup. nothing wrong with going to wider tires as long as you keep the stagger pretty similar. that's just my opinion. it depends on your driving skill and what you want out of your car. most people who have track only cars go with a square setup but it is not really desirable on these cars on a street setup
