tom,
you don't think there is too much of a stagger running 265/305 vs. I heard people say you're better of going 275/305? what do you think?

Honestly I just copied what most with the te37's run. Was a bit worried about rubbing with the 275 up front. Some more time and I can answer your question better aftwer some driving

265/35/19 & 305/30/19 has a staggered section width difference of 1.58 = more understeer than OEM staggered section width of 1.18.

Yup the 275/35/19 & 305/30/19 is dialed right on at 1.18

Now try 265/35/19 & 285/35/19 which is at 0.79 = less understeer

I agree the 275's may have rubbing issues, also depends on your drop. Running stock height probably no rubbing issues.
