Default Tires -- narrow RE11 OR wide Pilot Super Sport?

I have been running RE-11's to all autox events this year. I also have new set of Michelin Pilot Super Sport's which I'm considering running but I wanted to get some opinions before the Match Tour this weekend.

I know the RE11s are supposed to have more grip, but with the size difference, will I even notice much?

Current autox rims: (from base model 370z, rim narrower than stock)
RE-11 (200 treadwear, running low on tread)
FR: 18x8 - 245/40R18
RR: 18x9 - 275/35R18
VS

My stock rims: (from sport package 370z)
Michelin Pilot Super Sport (300 treadwear, new 0 miles)
FR: 19x9 - 255/40R19
RR: 19x10 - 285/35R19
What do you guys think? Maybe I just need to switch em and test it.
