My wheel setup and what tires size

Everyone going square, hmmm...

I wanted to run the bfgoodrich Gforce rival since tire rack has it beating the re11 in every dry test. Seems I have to be 275/35 or 295/35 to be square or maybe stay staggered with those numbers. They seem light too. The re11 only has a comparable size in the 275/35 but its 2 pounds heavier

My friend did extensive testing on the rivals, the only time the rival is faster is on lighter cars that don't overheat the tires (miatas etc). He tests on an s2k, and was slower than the Rs3. So I am staying far away from the rivals and they are MORE expensive than the rs3.

What do you guys think about 285 ds3's all around on the stock sport wheels? I know 18s are better but love my rims.
