Default 295 35 18 on Front and Rear of 99 Z28.

I'm planning on getting new tires wheels for my Z28. I'd like to run 295 35 18 on the front and rear. Now I know that fitting them on the rear should be no issue but what about the front. I'm running 6 piston CTS-V Brakes with an 8mm spacer up Front. So my question what way would make them fit better in front. I can get the new wheels for my car in a 40mm offset or 56mm just like I have now and run the spacers? Also will the tires rub? I'm not lowered but I do plan to lower it soon since I've got Koni STR shocks and Strano springs sitting in the garage.

There's more room in the front than in the rear on these cars. I'm running a square 315/30/18 and up front I didn't have to do anything. I'm running custom wheels with a 40mm offset.

Are you lowered at all? Did you have to roll your fenders?

I'm running 295-35-18 f&r on my car as well, more than enough room up front like MANIAC said above. I am lowered ~2in on coilovers and only "issue" is rubbing on plastic fender well in the front, but that isn't something that I really care about so I've let it clearance itself
