I found this over on NASIOC, a Subaru forum:

If you think the same please e-mail Jeff and let him know.

A shorter 275/17 would be great for the track prepped FDs and possibly for the FC as well. It looks like with enough interest we can make it happen.

275/30 would be awfully short, and would probably overheat easily. 275/35/17 would be awesome.

275/35 would be perfect!

Just a heads up to everyone. Hoosier just came out with a 275/35/17 A6 and R6

AWESOME. No need to upgrade to 18" wheels now.
