I have 275's all around and am sorry I didn't put 255's up front. The 275's will tramline something fierce on ever so slighty truck rutted roads to the point of being scarey when you can see the ruts. The car will just take off to one side or the other and you really have to be quick to maintain your lane. When I need new rubber, it'll be 285's rear and 255's front.

front carbon splitter and rear carbon diffuser are probably the next mods and get the spoiler holes filled.

A 255/45/18 up front and 285/40/18 out back would look good....plus, both have an overall diameter similar to what's stock.
