I know there is something similar to what I'm asking here, but I just want clear answers.

Current tire and wheel setup:
Beyren Spartan wheels 18x8.5 with 215 up front and 245 out back. The offset is 15 on the wheels

What is the largest tire I could run up front? I have H&R sport lowering springs.

Note:

I want to run the closest to square setup I can. So 245rear 235 front or 255rear 245front

So you're running a square wheel setup with staggered tire sizes?

Why

That has to look god aweful, not to mention an 8.5" wide wheel with et15 up front cannot possibly work without massive camber and fender modding.

IMHO if you're running a square wheel setup, do the same with the tires. It makes MUCH more sense physically as well as aesthetically

As far as what would fit I honestly can't recommend for that low an offset, If anything I'd run a 235/40 all around. I was contemplating running a square wheel setup with 18x8.5's et43 with 235/40's. Some expressed that a 245/35 front and back would actually run and fit better due to the slightly smaller diameter.

Yea I hear what you're saying, and I was mistaken by my offset it is actually et43 and I swapped my rear wheels with the fronts and I had zero rub with the 245/35/18 up front.

Ok so you're actually running 18x8.5 et43 wheels front and rear with 245's front and back or what? Are you running camber plates or any other suspension mods?

Sounds like you already figured it out by putting your 245s up front. I'd go 245 square if I had that set up. Be careful about brand switching, you might suddenly rub. If you later find you can't go with 245 fronts. I'd go 235fr/245 or 255 rear.
