I run wide tires because I am boosted but I know of a few serious track rats that are really fast that run 315 square N/A. I think if you are fast it is what you comfortable with. Most run 275 35 because of cost and class restrictions depending on time attack rules and class. I think a lot more folks would run wider tires if not for those two considerations. Also a square 295 30 works as well.

Don't see many running 305 square on a Z. Mostly 315 or 295. Not sure why that is other than availability and cost.
