your'e being ignorant.

more grip, more cornering speed.

before you say this is over kill for the car, for those of us who use this as a dual purpose car (auto-x/track + daily) it really isn't at all. Consider this, the Spec 86 series cars run a 255 race slick (closer to a265 really) and those cars have very basic mods and a basic tune NA and they still can use even more tire. We are running a street tire, i can still get the car to rotate quite easily even with this size.
I'm not at all. I'm asking a legitimate question on the reasoning behind wider tires. No need to get offended.
