I plan to run 265/35-18 like I did on my e46 M3. I like a square setup so I can rotate. I would worry about going to winter widths i.e. 235. You are obviously not carrying track speeds in Buffalo winters unless you have a death wish.

I sure hope my track wheels fit over the brakes. I have been dealing with Jim at Tirerack since my 1997 M3 days and plan to call him. 265 is a nice size. It is more reasonable, available and plenty wide.

Has anyone used the Toyos or the Dunlops? I am used to the Kuhmo v700s and like a really stiff sidewall. I presently have Re11s for street and have often used Pzeros. At one time in the 90s I had Pzero Corsas but they are not legal for stock in SCCA Solo. They were great. I started in BFG r1 in the early 90s and loved they way they talked to you at the limit.
