295's do fit!
had my local Discount Tire mount and balance the 295's i bought. Got both tires, shipped for $130. LOVE EBAY!
the tire guy was hesitant and kept insisting they would not fit, i said, just do it! they got me quite annoyed and i almost left, but they finally said ok. get it back and they are all done, looks amazing! this is how it shoulda look from the factory! i'll try and get pics up later.
so, 9.5" wheel and a 295 works. Just to set the record straight!

I really hate it when a tire store tells me something wont fit. They base it only off what the computer tells them and what the stock size was.
I dont know how many people say et 35s all around wont fit because of the brakes, its BS i had 8.5 .9.5 Et 35s all around worked fine.
I was also told Et35s wouldnt fit right on a R129 SL and they, fit just fine.
I guess big chain tire stores have to go by orig manufacture data or what the comp says or they wont do it. or they will make you sign a waiver.

The stance is DEFINITLY MEAN!!! you guys will love the look. i did however have a slight rub issue, but i had 5 guys in the car, going thru a hard turn. but otherwise, unloaded and hard turns are not an issue.
