With 600 hp, the 4 % taller tires won't change the gearing much. I run the taller 245/45-17 out back(have done so for 100k miles) on my '06 S and it does give you more comfort on rough roads. I also like the traction I get but I don't have 600 hp. I run 235/40-17 up front and the VSA works just fine for normal driving but I do shut it off when out having fun(did this with the stock size tires to). Like you posted you will need T/C or your tires will just go up in smoke in the lower gears.

Reminds me of Dick Cheney's comment about how it was pretty much established that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction.

For me it wasn't the wmd but the aluminum tubes that really made me nervous.
