they will fit with the correct tire.. believe it or not, they are not all the same even though they are 295s... I know the NT555 295 is narrower than the KDW 295... the rims will fit fine.. if you do rub, it wont be by much... you can push the inner fender in a little and you will be fine...

Yup, they'll work. You may have to do a little BFH in the rear, I didn't though.

your fitment will be determined with your ride height after you drive it for a few miles and everything settles back into place... the wider tire you have, the less you can lower the car... if you are stock height and you dont haul around fat chicks, you will have no problems... I had 295 KDWs on my TA and they rubbed if I turned hard or I had people in the back... if I was by myself, no problems...

I have 18x9.5 in front with a 275/35-18 and 18x10.5 in the rear with 295/35-18. Wheels are from OEWheels with a 56mm offset.
