How many other frs/brz have you driven? What tire wheel did they have?
Haven't driven many twins. Mostly other cars. Couple of turbo FRS's, 1 eforce car, nothing bigger than 18x8. No tire bigger than 245.

The bigger tire setup did the power-slide job alright, but the car felt bigger, heavier... It liked to push more during forward weight transfer in a corner, needed power to rotate. It just didn't handle as well. I'll give you that the entry speeds were marginally faster, but it just didn't feel as spritely. It felt like a Mustang. Stock suspension, btw.
