Thanks.

I'm running 265/35 r19 winters up front and square. It's fine...I think the rule of thumb is if you want 275's up front you'll want a 10" wheel so the sidewall leans in a bit and camber plates.
I've had 265,275's mounted on the front. The 275's won't rub with a 30 sidewall. They tend to rub on the plastic liners first. So a 275/30 would actually be a better fit then than a 265/35. I'll be going 265/35 up front because I want that extra sidewall. I don't mind a little liner rub.
Out back a 285 makes the most sense. I'm thinking there's no reason why a 295 wouldn't fit or even a 305 with the right offset. I had 315/30 Hoosier r7 slicks mounted and they are too pudgy with a 10" wheel. Anything bigger than a 295 you'll have to be exact with your measurements and offsets. More suited to a high offset 10.5 or 11
