Thx again everyone.
Yes I ran 265 in the front last year, 285 now. The car drives like a completely different car. I was expecting a small difference, but the car just turns and sticks so much better in the front end. Gone is the plow (it gets worse once your tires get old), now I am actually greet with the rear end stepping out from time to time, being able to rotate with the throttle and overall a much more balance car.

If you don't track, just get the 265 for safety reason. It does fit the front wheels better.
