If you are autocrossing in stock class than run 245/35/18s in the front and 265/35/19 in the rear or you could run the 235/35/19 which is ironically just as wide as the 265 but a bit shorter.
I am autocrossing and SRT-6. I have Kuhmo 245/30/18 fronts and Pilot Cup Sport 265/35/19 rears. The car will turn in well but breaks the rear loose with even timmid use of the throttle. Your using 295/19 Hoosiers, who makes 265 and 235/19 race rubber?

Thanks.
