Looks great.... I have the same rims.
A 275/35/18 will give you a little more traction (more sidewall to flex) if you are having difficulties putting the power down. Maybe a thought when the 285's wear out.
So do those KD's kick butt or what? You should post your observations on the new combo in the suspension/tires section. Not many reviews to share on the KD's.... would be great to hear more about them.

Thanks for the compliments everyone.
I thought about getting the 275/35s. I'm currently not having a problem with traction, so for now, I made the right choice. When I go single, I may give them a shot.

I did however go to a Porsche Club autocross last weekend and didn't notice a big handling imbalance...at the same time beating the closest porsche by over 6 seconds. Poseurs. 
. Six seconds is a hellof-a-lotta difference.
