Is there a certain time of the year to buy tires for best price?

Well, I am curently running Michelin Pilot SuperSport:

245-35-20
285-30-20

This size is available in both tires.

I was hoping to go a bit wider in the back and try 295-30-20, but I am not sure if that will mess with anything. Or do I also switch to 255-35-20 in the front, to keep the change more or less equal?

Stock suspension and rims are.

20x9 +32 Front
20x10.5 +25 Rear

I think these tires will change my speedometer reading by almost 2%. My current tires change it by less then !%,

These sizes are also available in bot tires.

If you go with the 295/30-20. It's about 0.8% difference with the 245/35-20. The 255-295 combo would be the same.
