315 hoosier slick on the stock sport rears.
I've also run a 295 hoosier slick on the stock sport rears, up front~!

I've run 265/35 and 285/35 at one time, but dropped down to a 255/40 and 275/35 setup, as I much prefer the feel and grip from the non-bulged sidewalls.

I've never had a "vague" feeling on my Z running 18x10 wheels wrapped in 315/30-18 tires on the front. The trick is making sure you get a tire that has a stiff sidewall.

The only time I've had a vague feeling was when I used to run 295/40 tires. Sidewall height, IMHO, has more to do with a vague feeling than pinching a tire on the rim.

I run RE11 285/35/19 front and 325/30/19 rear on Nismo rims. I do not have any vague feeling at all. Stiff sidewall and tire pressure is key.

While I don't argue what you guys feel, having yet to break 15k on a set of tires because of where I live and what I do with the car, I notice sidewall flex and bulge. And I've been there with my old car and know the difference. I much prefer either a square fit for street tires or a slight stretch on higher grip tires.

People stating they have flex in the tire, what pressure do you run?

Somewhere in the mid to high 30's. it depends on if I cared to check tire pressure or not, and what tires I was running at the time.
