You can't go too wide on the front tires without compromising safety as the stock sport wheels are only 9". You can stick a 285 in there, but there is always that risk of stretching the sidewalls too much. Does it make the car faster and drive nicer? Absolutely, you just have to weight your risks with performance vs. safety. Car has 54%+ of its weight in front, you don't think it would benefit from having a big tire in front? You are kidding yourself.
