Also the stock 275's look stretched...... Which look stupid IMHO. The 285's fit great and you do get slightly better traction and also the RE-11's weigh less than the stockers. I like meaty tires.

People with the 305's on stock wheels pay more for the tire, add unneeded weight to the car, and only gain bragging rights to say they have 305's. Also some people just prefer that look, I don't.

I have Pilot Super Sports in OEM sizes and I think they look perfect from a fit perspective, but this may be simply a matter of opinion. They are also significantly lighter than OEM Potenzas as well.

Yes. Yours look good in oem sizes. They don't appear stretched like oem tires.

I wanted the RE-11's and the price difference between 275 & 285's was a no brainer. I saved $75

Saving money is usually a good thing.

getting wat you want and saving money sounds like a super deal to me too.

Stretching the Z's legs today by going for a cruise on some twisty roads along side the lake. Stopped for lunch at a little restaurant called Dougalls.
