I wanted to post a quick follow up. I initially ended up going with 255/40/20 and 295/35/20 Pilot Super Sports. Both tires were 28 and 28.1 inches tall. I was skeptical about the 295s but everybody at Discount tire was like "Dude mount them. If they rub then bring them back." I never knew they had a return policy. Welp that 295 stuck out about 2mm too wide and rubbed on the deepest bumps. There's a huge bump on 423 heading into the Colony that will bottom out any performance car LMAO. So I took those back and grabbed 255/35/20 and 285/35/20. The 27 and 27.9 inch tall tires feel much lighter and have a lower sense of gravity. But the biggest thing about the Super Sports is the grip. The front tires have so much grip until I thought my steering was set to sport instead of standard. We'll see how they last but they are worth every penny in wet or dry conditions. I even find myself driving faster because of the confidence in the tires.
