I also have a friend that is running RE11's with this setup:

285/35/19
305/30/19

Says the wider front wheels works great for autocross. Noticable difference over the 265's.
Yup one forum member also suggested that to have a better balance of the car it should have a 20 difference staggered front vs rear.

Whats your camber number on your rear?

just so happens that i got an alignment recently! Rear camber is -2.6/-2.5 left/right

A camber kit would bring it into specs, but i've had it like this over 10k miles and haven't had an issue with excessive wear.

Wow thats great mine is at -2.0 on both rears. I thought this was already to much of a camber for excessive wear. I do have camber kits.
But at -2.6 and not much wear with the RE11's??? Amazing!
I guess Im safe then with the -2.0
BTW my set up is 255/305 V12

I'm getting pissed cause every time I go for an alignment the shop either 'doesn't have the specs for a 370Z' or just gives me the alignment for a 350Z. It's annoying, so I have no idea what mine are at.

I'm running a 295 in the back and I have camber arms, but I don't know what the stock specs for this mod should be.
