Thanks for all the advice everybody.

23,000 miles on them currently, bought the car with 17,000 miles on and the tires were barely worn so I'm tryin hard to burn through these stock tires as I don't like em.

Size wise, I'd have to oversize the rears upto a 285 with the RE11 as they don't do 275 but this doesn't seem a problem according to this site, but no option to oversize fronts same as they don't do 255's.

The Hankooks let me oversize front and back by 10mm.,,,,mmm decisions decisions.

The next decision is whether or not to buy a HKS exhaust and upgrade intake's? Other than sound improvements I'm not yet totally convinced torque and power improvements are worth the expense?

You'll need a tune to get the most out of intake + exhaust mods. Whether or not the few extra ponies is worth the cash is up to you. Unless the slight increase in HP and torque is important to you, I'd go with a nice sounding exhaust (tune shouldn't be necessary) and be done with it. YMMV

Plenty of threads on this site about intake and exhaust mods.
