I just run stock sizes as I'm NA and no where near reaching the performance grip limits of the tires on corners. I have spun out on a corner a few times in the past but I don't do that anymore.

but stickier and wider =

lol

i'm NA as well and there was a noticeable difference in the grip when going slightly wider with my tire selection.

They should be available now.

I might give them a try since I'll be ordering wheels soon.

if it sells well then next year the size range will most likely expand.

My thoughts as well. I'm hoping these will yield similar lateral grip levels while being able to sustain the weight of the Z.

The Star Specs aren't that great on heavy cars.
