The best or nothing
The question isn't yes or now, it would be why

Not sure, but it would look good if possible.

IF you would, I think a 285 would be the widest tire (chance of rubbing but would also have a little stretch look on side walls). Or do a 295 or 305 and not lower the car at all.

Im using 285s in the back and seems like theres enough room for 295s, but im not sure it would be good to go any higher. 295s look pretty wide already imo.

295 will rub especially if you lower the car. But whats the point of wheels without lowering.

I have 295s in the rear on both of my sets of wheels, however my Symbolic have never rubbed, but my 360 Forged Spec 5ive did very slightly. I had the lower portion of my fender rolled and now there's no issue at all.

Hi !
You state you`re driving 295 at the rear.

Can you please tell me what diameter rim you`ve got, rim width and ET ?
