that was my question, should i just be patient and get 275s or go ahead and throw these tires on.... this is obviously an opinion, and i was looking for opinions. ive got some now. mainly that picture and some others ive seen. im just gonna put the tires i have on, and ill drive the car as hard as ive wanted to for a while. by the time those tires are worn, ill have plenty of cash for a nice 255/275 or 265/275 setup.

prior to 18x9.5 +20 all the way around with 245-40 / 275-40 tires, I was on 19x8 19x9.5 +20ish (with spacers..) wheels with 245/285 tires .. they seemed to cut into the turns much better. I am guessing the front wheel width being the same is the cause of the understeer increase and probably not the tire being slightly stretched, what do you think?

yeah, they fit, and while it could be a myriad of other factors, I've noticed some awkward understeer after I swapped from my old wheel and tire set up to these.
