Yes you do want to go to 265/35. I bought a extra set of wheels that had 265/40s on them. Mounted them on my car just to see if tires are good enough to sell.
Makes car feel & look jacked up in the rear & slows acceleration too. Are you in Miramar Beach? I was there last week & didn't see any Porsches.
