Default 255/40r18 & 295/40R18 ?

Hello, I really need more traction with over 575hp and saw the Falken Azenis I tried at earlier and much loved..very good quality/price

The problem is a big ratio for vdc if I take the 255/40R18 and 295/40R18 for maximum width fit on my Enkei RPF1 9.5 & 10.5 with 15mm offset..i know it was in my fender but for the VDC, has anyone tried?

This is for track day and street use..

You have something else to suggest to me?

My other choice is Kumho XS 245/35R18 & 275/35R18 but the road here (Quebec) aren't like yours and would like more sidewall for comfort

285/35-18 RS3 would hook well, and run a 265/35-18 front

The rear will need a lot of a roll and the upper ends of OEM spec camber. The 285/35 can run less camber giving you a better contact patch. Also the RS3 will last much longer on the road and takes wet roads much better
