I wouldn't recommend that type of setup for the street though. You don't need that much tire for the street.
you hit the nail on the head. I used to have a twin turbo hsv r8 (read pontiac g8) with 275's at the front and 305's at the back using Michelin Sports Cup rubber. Excellent on the track but on the street the car lost cornering feel and was pig to drive.

Been there done that.
