Interesting, I've been running 255/35/18s on mine for the past 2 years. Long story, got caught in a desert town with a scrapped tire. One tire shop. They saw me coming... They put these on and I never even noticed for some time! Duh.

Seattle is in its second Summer of record heat. 40+ days in a row above 80 last year, and we set another record on Friday for most days above 90 degrees in a year. The top isn't down as much as I'd like it to be as the afternoon commute has been a bit toasty.

I'm sure losing 10mm of tread width wouldn't be noticeable on the street, but once I get the suspension refreshed this Winter I'd like to consider doing at least one auto-x and perhaps a DE day next year. If that comes to pass I want the right size tires.
