given the loss of sidewall height (and presumably ride comfort) relative to stock, why recommend 265+285/30 over 275+295/30?
Tire sidewall stretch (more control, better turn-in), and less weight. It does depend on the tire you choose as well, but in general, 265/30 + 285/30 on 9.5/10.5 won't be matched on overall performance, just like 245/265 on stock wheels won't either. Doesn't seem to stop people from trying tho.
