The plan was to rotate me still meaty rears to the front and put either 275s or 305s in the rear. I just couldn't find much info on anyone with stock rays running 275/305. I would love to run 4 18x10.5 RFP1s or SA55Ms.
You can run a 275/35 up front without an issue. That's the maximum recommended width for a 9" wheel and it works really well. The car will definitely benefit from running more tire up front.

If you are still on the Potenzas you can fit a 305 RE050A on the stock rear wheels.

Probably 285/305 to keep you in spec.

I think it would look just fine. You might be better off going 275/35 for the fronts, though. 285 is probably going to be a little too tall.

This is what a 305/30/19 PSS looks like on a 10.5" rim:
