295 to 305 would be little or no difference in appearance unless you went with different brands of tires. say a 295 Nitto before to a 305 GSD3 after, would be a big difference. 315s will work on a 10.5" wheels, it will just take a little more effort to make them fit on the car.

looks like CCW's to me.
Dan, not all tires are created equal. Look at the Nitto 315 to the BFG 315.
I had 275/40/17 BFG Comp TA ZR on my car a long time ago. They were wider than the 275/40/17 Goodyear Eagle F-1 GS they replaced.
Some tire companied like BFG tend to be wider on the treads. The numeric value represents the widest part of the tire, being sidewall bulge to sidewall bulge, not actual tread.

Thanks for the comments guys, I have had these for 3 yrs now, switchin it up to chrome iForged Aero's whenever they come in. Also ordered a pair of those 305 M/T drag radials. What size do most guys with 18's upfront run? I need some suggestions, I never had 18's up front before. I think I ordered 18x9 or 9.5's. for the front.
