They will fit fine...hawkeye-se has the exact same setup with no issues. I am dropped on Eibach springs with 245/30/20 fronts and 295/25/20 rears with no rubbing. You may want to go 285/30/20 rears to be more conservative with the more aggressive drop.

Your dealer may be recommending those sizes for a stock suspension, which would work for sure. However, depending on the tire, I would think that considering the aggressiveness of the RDSport drop, you'll rub both in the front (at full lock) and rear. Can't speak from experience though. I suggest PMing hawkeye-se so he can chime in on his setup.

I would also recomend the 285/30/20 rear tire for best handling. Unless you have alot more power, like a supercharger, you wont see a ton of benefit of the 295 vs. the 285. The 295 may also lead to a little more understeer possibly as well. Feel free to PM me if you have any other specific questions. We have sold this BBS wheel and tire set up many times here.
