Saw this in person today and it definitely looks mean!

Holy buckets. 275's in the rear? Wow! I like the way the fronts look as well. The 235/45's fill out the fender nicely.

True. I just had no idea that 275s would even fit in the back.

Brady, any particular reason on going with all-season tires?

I went with these tires in particular because while they are all called "Pilot Sport All Season Plus" they are still a Z Rated High Performance Tire. So I get the nice smooth ride of a Michelin, the wet grip of an all season in case I get stuck in heavy rain, and the stiffness and dry grip of a performance tire when I need it. In all honesty, it doesn't matter what tire I put on the back, once you get over 280hp it doesn't really make a difference unless you go to a drag radial, which I will have an extra set of for the track when I need them. What little bit of grip I lose by using these vs a stickier tire, I make up in contact patch, 275s are 10.5 inches wide.

I've been a Michelin/BFG dealer for years, I've been to all the testing centers, tested all the different tires, been through all the boring classes, I can tell you a good amount about most tires if you ever need info!

No modifications were made to fenders, fender liners, brake lines, etc. No spacers needed, these are stock fitment and this car is lowered only 1" on Eibach Pro Kit.

Enjoy!

Did you black out the headlights?
