I can't put 265/35 on the front since they will rub crazy, almost won't turn. Even stock 245/35 is there, could rub. The diameter difference is like 0.5 inches between those sizes.

And worse, PSS don't come with 285/35 (or 30), not yet as far as I know. You heard anything about release of those sizes?

So, I feel like my best chances seem to be stay stock or go for 275/295 but on 30 aspect and also add camber plates. Stock wheel size may be less than ideal but likely not prohibitive, at least tire rack suggests so

Will it be possible to stay exactly equal or really close to stock ride height with the camber plates?
