305 is fine with a 10.5, I agree on 10 it is pushing it a bit but 295 seems to be a hard size to find for our car with the proper fitment. I do not think 305 will react that badly with our side wall.

A lot of it depends on the type of tire too. Some tend to bulge more than others, I've noticed.

Check out the fastest street tire, the Yokohama Advan Neova AD-08. I have them in 295/255 combos. Can't comment on performance, as I have 0 miles on them since I wrecked before using them, but they fit nicely on the factory width rims.

Let me know how they do, have not heard about those, everyone keeps talking about the V12s.

They are supposed to be a true dual purpose street/track tire, good for 180 degree heat cycles. All the reviews are awesome. I was going to put them on for one dry session before the rain was due in but my mishap occurred before I could do so.
