Is 275 the widest size for Starspecs? Have they discontinued 285's? I thought i saw guys running 285's in these?

Just looked at the Tire Rack and it doesn't look like anything over 275 is available.

For NA, you dont need a 285. I was worried going from 275 re050s to 255 star specs. They grip so amazingly. I went from lower half placings to top 3 finishes just from the tires. Its less rotating weight anyways.
I hear the RS3 is great, but only second best to the star specs. I say star specs for us pigs.
Dont like overheating
Perform better then most in the rain
They will talk to you
Dont know how they will hold out on the track yet, but we shall see. I use them for autoX.

RS3 is awsome, 285/35 and 265/35 is a great combo. Nitto NT05 works great, many choices and 275/35 square or 265/35 and 275/35 with star specs. Any of those above will make you happy.

Think I'm a go with the Star Specs since i've just never heard a bad thing about them. I was considering the 275's in other tires, so not so bad.
I was a bit concerned about the aesthetic as well. I was looking at the RT615's but those wear very quickly from what I've seen.
How is the Nt05 for wear?

None are the listed tires are going to have decent wet performance.
