With the 265's in the rear they would always break loose through 3rd gear. The 295 has yet to break loose and the test has been with MDM engage. This definitely gives you the kick in the ass feeling many of us crave when it's time to go. The set up is as follows:

265-30-19 front ZCP wheel......19x9 +31
295-30-19 rear ZCP wheel......19x10 +25

Factory ZCP suspension with no camber adjustments made and no spacers.

Take a good look at the liner pictures. I think a 275-30-19 up front would rub slightly. The 265 is the perfect fit in the PSS. Keep in mind I only weight about a 175lbs. so I can't speak for any additional weight factors. I hope this answer a few question on this particular tire and size................Phil
Looks great!! I don't think a 275 would rub, for one its been done before with no rubbing and two, its about diameter not no much width. A 255/35/19 is 26.1" tall and it is just a hair away from rubbing. If I do this it would be a 275 up front.

Let us know how you like the feel of the car after a few hundred miles, new tires never feel so good...
