I have some other Foose (Legends) wheels where I use 20 x10 with +40mm offset all the way around. I am using the tires you listed 275 in front 305 in back. My car is lowered one inch by after market springs. The front wheel/tire set is the point of concern, close to rubbing on the strut tower - initially I had to take caution on camber adjustments... Later I added Pfadt camber/caster adjustment plates on the struts and now can get -1.5 camber with reasonable clearance. Down the road I plan to upgrade to Pedders Xa coil overs and get another 10 mm strut-tire clearance - then I plan to use 305 tires all around. I see no issues if one wanted to use the 315 tires on back. Hope this information helps...

I have the foose wheels and am running 245 up front and 315 in the rear. I originally had the 275 up front and they fit perfect, but I had to swap them out because they were worn and i put the 245 back on, but they fit perfect. I also have the pfadt 1.25" drop springs

here are the epics with the 275 up front and 315 in the rear

Based on my experience and many reports from other forum members using the stock rear wheel/tire combination all the way around I would say you should have no problems with the wheel/tire combination's you want to use....
