The 295's are a tad taller....like around an inch. Not sure if it's enough to make a difference with your speedo. If anything your ABS might complain about it, but again, don't think the size difference would be enough. As mentioned check out their site or Tirerack for specs on the size of both tires, what you're looking for is overall tire diameter. The stock diameter is around 25.6"

Guys I'm runnning 275/35/18 front and 295/35/18 rear w/o any problemw with the ABS system.
The rears will be slightly taller as mentioned above so your speedo will be slightly off. Nothing to worry about. But I did update my PCM after buying EFILive to the correct pulses per mile so my speedo is back on track. But you really don't need to do this as it doesn't affect it much.

81.954" is the circumference for the new tires , the old ones are 80.384" which is a 1.9% difference, so at 100 on the speedo, you will be actually going 101.9...not that big of a deal
