To buy or not to buy

Sorry, I'm also assuming that you can't run different rear tires than those upfront right? meaning stock tires up front and pilot sports, RE11's, AD08's in the rear right?

Yeah not recommended, but if your casually driving you shouldn't have issues. I'm swapping mine to RE11's in the next week or so, fronts are fine but 14k is about the most I could feasibly get from the rears. I'm changing up sizing substantially 265/35 and 305/30. Had I been switching to the re11's in a 285 I probably would have left the fronts till they wear out.(don't believe re11 comes in a 275) but under normal driving you shouldn't notice any adverse affects.

I run the stocks up front and the RE's in the rear. The rears were gone by 15,00o. I'm at 22,000 now and just getting ready for fronts. I really cant tell you if there is any difference until I put the fronts on, that being said, the car handles great the way it sits. So IMO your fine.
