Default RE-11 or Star Specs

With the mail in rebate I can save about $250 going with Star Specs, however my only concern is the shape of the tire's sidewall. I have been told my wheel setup (which should be here in August) is a safe fitment without rubbing. I am lowered on Tein Flex to Teins recommended settings. Can anyone tell me which tire would fit best, wasn't sure if one was wider or less rounded than the the other? I have been happy with bridgestones over the years but I have read great things about the star specs. Thanks in advance.

With those offset you should be fine with either tire. In driving the tires in testing I would lean toward the RE-11. They were the winner in the test here.
If I can help let me know.

My friend just put some RE-11's on his Evo, and they have amazing grip.
