My new setup:
Front 19 x 9 Bridgestone RE050A 255/35
Rear 19 x 10 Bridgestone RE050A 285/30
The sidewall profile is nowhere near as beefy as the PS2's, It definitely looks like a much better fit IMO.

My rubbing was on the outside with my CCWs but only a little.Jangy, I really don't think you'll be happy with the 295s on 10 inches. If it doesn't rub at static suspension it WILL rub sometime, bumps, lowering, turns. My CCWs have a more aggressive off set and rubbed the outside. Torquey55's ate the inside. Do what BlackC230Coupe says and roll your fenders, get an aggressive offset then go 295s. Just trying to help you out.

Glad you finally noticed the issues prior to disaster striking

I have this exact same setup and with ELM, no fender roll and I have no rubbing issues. from what I can gather John is convinced the sidewall profile and strength of these RE050A's is the way to go.
