Default 285 v 295

I am going to be ordering some 18x9, 18x10 black FR's hopefully tomorrow if i can get this tire thing figured out. I plan on getting the Sumi's from MT (265) for the front. The question is...what tires for the back? I do have sort of a limited wallet, so I doubt I will be getting BFG's. Plus, I don't plan on racing. MT recommends a 285 for the back, but Badfish told me to go 295. How much of a difference will this be?

10mm more. Its a small difference, i would just go with whatever you can afford since money is tight and you dont race it.

So, in other words, the 285 will fill the wheels out just fine.
