Message Actually, and a 245/35-18 on a 8" 350z v1 Track Wheel?

I've seen a few folks comment about running this. I'm a wee-bit nervous, as I saw some people NOT recommending trying to go 245 on the 8" up front as it can lead to increased tramlining (I had to look that up).

Right now I need new tires, and had been running 235/35-18 and 255/35-18 when my car was NA. However, the HP has doubled and the rear end breaks loose pretty easily, and my car understeers horribly on the track. Though, I tend to like a bit of that as I can sort of use the throttle to get the car around.

I was going to go with Pilot Super Sports in the 245/265 mentioned above. Thoughts? I know this is a bit more than recommended, but right now it looks like my current tire sidewall isn't pinched at all.
