10.5 inch rim (RPK-038)

Im looking to get new rims for my car.
The deep dish RPK-038 wheels caught my eye.
If anyone has these could you please chime in about whether you like them or not.

What do you guys think the widest rear tire width I could run on these rims without rubbing?
I was thinking of running 295 or 305 on the rear with a 255 on the front.
I think that would give it an aggressive look. Do you guys think there would be any performance enhancements since there is a larger contact patch?

Also if I lower the car about half an inch or .75 of an inch would that cause the tire to rub?


What do you guys think would look better?
- Gloss black spokes with polished lips
or
-Gloss black spokes with color matched speed yellow lips
or
-All Gloss black
