295 doesn't fit . . .

Same size wheel run the same saized tire . . . no point doing otherwise.

Either 275/35ZR18 or 285/35ZR18 . . . on all four corners.

I'm running 275/35/18 in front, and 275/40/18 in the rear,and love the look!

With 9.5" wide rims you could run 285/35/18 in the front and 285/40/18 in the rear IMO that would look good too!
To run 295s in the rear you need at least a 10" rim; according to most tire manufactures.
