Possible new hoosier size 275/30/17 or 275/35/17
I found this over on NASIOC, a Subaru forum:

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

Thanks,

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.
