Default Largest tire run with Sportlines?

I just purchased a set of 18x10/18x9 rims for the track and some driving use I guess and am worried about rubbing with my sportlines in the rear. I wanted to go with at least a 295, but would like to go with a 305 or 315 but rubbing i'm sure may become an issue with this low of a drop. Let me know what you guys have experienced, although i'm sure most of the people with sportlines will have 20's like myself...

I'm going to be running 295's and I know those will be no problems. The only thing I could find wider were Nitto drag radials, which I wouldn't trust on the street (especially if you ever see rain).
