On stock suspension, you will rub slightly at full bump in the rear with 295/30. 305/30 will rub regardless and be slightly pertruding from the fender unless you give it healthy dose of camber. You will most likely end up around 1-1.5finger fender gap in the rear, front I would suggest a 265/30 if you want to lessen the gap.


I went with 265/35/19 and 295/30/19 on my first gen TE37, Piolot Sport 2s. You are not wasting energy width wise because it contributes to the look, suspension feel and most importantly clearance issues. However do not sweat over the speedometer being off because we are talking less 5% overall diameter change which affects very little unless you are deep into 3 digit speeds.
