Okay I am not a suspension guy and I don't claim to be either. However look at the new Z28 and it has 305's all the way around.
I've talked with the Lotus guys (Suspension & Chassis Engineer) for year about suspension and chassis design and they all agree more isn't always better. There is a balance and before you figure out the balance you have to know how to tune a suspension which I am willing to bet 99% have no clue how to actually do it.
I also talked with a couple guys at Ride-Tech at Sema and the subject of 295's all the way around came up and they thought it was a good idea and now you just have to figure out if all 4 tires should be the exact same height or should they be staggered. Lots to think about and I know there is a post from a couple years ago that I made that had some great information.
My future plans with my car is to run 295's on all 4 corners and spend a bunch of time tuning the suspension with someone that really understands how they work.
There are so many things to consider and I think it would be great if one of the experienced guys to chime on with suggestions as to what they think about the tire pressure, Spring rates, rebound, dampening, weight bias & so on as I really would like to learn as much as I can over the winter so I don't look like an idiot next year when we start to thrash on my camaro.
