      265s might rub in the front. I have 255s and they are very close to rubbing when turning.

          I think 295 is way too much for what you have

          go for 255-275 in the back, smaller in the front

          Remember that you can't rotate your tires now, so you are going to wear them quite a bit faster. When buying tires, try to get something w/ a high tread wear rating (I know kumhos aren't going to last very long like that)
