No offense, but if you follow your logic you could never change a single thing about your car without downgrading it from the holy grail of perfection that left the factory.

Every quick guy at the track runs wider than stock front/rear unless budget keeps them from it.

If you're pleased with stock sizes then that is perfectly fine, but don't spread misinformation that running wider tires somehow causes ill-handling etc. when in fact the opposite is true.
Agree...

You know the old addage, "you can lead a horse to water but you will never make him drink".
