The 275s in the front looked way more overkill then the 305s in the back...I feel the rears are flush with the rim with minimul buldge.

I actually ended up going 265 in the front because of that actually. They were also a good bit taller. After some research the 265s ended up given me the exact overall height as the rears which was great. They are now visually more equal in profile compared to the rear and the same overall height!

One thing I noticed being so aggressive, was before the corner balancing the rears had almost 2.5-3 inchs of tire that never touched the ground (holy camber batman!). But now that everything is balanced and i have a 2.1ish camber in the rear only like 1-1.5 inch of rubber is not touching unless agressivly turning. So the 305s are great!

Also, its cool to be in the 300's with tires...it commands respect! hehe

But yes, you should be fine with 265/295 no problem!
