I'm definitely going to purchase another set. With the new sizes being released, I'm torn whether to run a square 305/30R-19 or a staggered 285/35R-19 front 305/30R-19 rear.

I'd love to run a square 305/30R-19 however I'm worried about clearance on turn-in. These Bridgestones run very wide.

I'm admittedly very under-prepared for CAM-C. Up front I'm running stock shocks with BMR 1.25" lowering springs and BMR sway bar. I have about -1.5 degrees camber dialed in up front, no toe.

Can anyone with a similar setup chime in? I've heard a staggered setup isn't always ideal for autocross.
I know 'bruhop' on this forum runs 305/35/20 RS3v2 Hankooks all around on his 1LE. PM him, not 19 inch wheels but may help with clearance issues.
