Make that 285. Pretty sure they don't put skinnier tires on the SS than they do on regular GT500s.

That sucks. I run 275/35 20 all around and i have half their horse power; I still don't get enough traction from these skinny things...

Default 275 is correct

The Super Snake does run 275's in the rear, which is certainly not enough tire to hand that kind of horse power.
