Will 305/30/19 fit up front? No coil-overs

Pedders fit 305/30/19 on their camaro, but they had coil-overs. Has anyone fit this wide of a tire up front on stock springs?

I know 295's fit up front on stock springs.

295's all around or 305/315 in the rear for Road Course/ street?

I'm having trouble deciding whether I want 295's on all four corners or if I should just put 295's up front and put wider 305's or maybe even 315's on the rear.

The car is mostly street driving...

For a top oil that meets GM suggested requirements, I recommend Pennzoil Ultra 5w30. You can find it in 5 quart jugs at your local Walmart. However, other oils may work just as well.

Warm up the engine. Turn it off and let it sit for about 3 minutes. Check the dipstick. If it isn't foaming, then you're OK.
