Thx,Ryan!
I mean, if this was my AutoX, I'd be running 10s all around.
To your 2nd point,
I'm on 10.5" +15 rr, stock height. Poking out, have to be careful bout lowering.
Perhaps 10", or a less aggressive offset for other folk.

Absolutely - 265 is pretty huge for a front tire. That is on par with a 2016 911 GT3 RS which is also 265 up front.

On a Rear engine rwd car, that is actually very wide, prob equal to a 295 front on a Z

That is true, but I would imagine some in here don't track their cars too often so a 265 is suitable for them.
Personally, at 3600+lbs I still get way more understeer than I want with a 275 so for me that is too skinny. Its all subjective though.
