You get what you pay for and the Pilot Super Sports are worth very dollar. They are the best all-around tires I have ever used on any of my Z's or other cars/trucks by far.

I have Swifts and 15/20mm spacers so I want the wheels flush. I don't track or drive 'super' aggressive, so others that have gone this way say there is no problem with response etc....

The only concern for me is the 305 on the rear which is out of spec. I know lots of people run without problems but I like to stay within manufacturer spec.

I like fat turt.. I mean tires.
If anything, I don't mind switching to 265/35 & 285/35 setup. I had 255/35 tires up font, but didn't like the thin profile compared to 245/40. So Conti DW or PSS should fit the budget (hopefully a bit stickier and slightly longer lasting)? Heck, I don't mind something slightly better than the V12 for daily driving. After paying off the car I'll get a daily grocery getter, so I don't mind better tires for driving on good days.

Trust me, I'm not doing it because I want to. If I had the budget, I would have had another set of PSS' on the rear. But I agree with mismatched being a bad idea. But when you don't have a choice at the moment...
