If 255/285 will result in more understeer (I think you're right about that), then backing off to 275 in the rear would restore the factory balance but with more grip from the RE-71s and a little more width. I'll run the stock 19s to save a little money. And I won't have clearance issues no matter how hard I push.
After the 2018 AX season, if I choose to go bigger, then the "perfect" Apex 9.5/10.5" 18 inch setup with coilovers, camber plates, and more tire with way more camber would be in order.

That’s a great plan and exactly what I would do.
I also have Dinantronics Stage 1 and IC, so the 285s really help with rear grip and the added torque. I’ll probably do the 255/285 combo for the street and stick to my 265/35/18 square RE-71R setup for the track.
If I add more power in the future, I’ll get the same 9.5/10.5 setup you mentioned with more rubber.
