I've been using stock size Re71 on 8" front & 9" rear OZs for the last couple years - 225 front 265 rear. That stagger is about 85% front to rear; 255/295 is 86%. That's why I like those proportions as it shouldn't change the understeer/oversteer characteristics. 255/35/18 front is 0.24% smaller circumference that stock and 295/30/18 is 1.3% less - shouldn't interfere height-wise.
The issue is more clearance from suspension components - particularly spring perches.

What is your ride height? If you're lower than usa stock specs i don't know how you'd get all that tire back there without going ultra low profile.
