well.... i'm running 295/25/22 and the ride quality is not bad as one might think. Yeah it's a luxury sedan but it's heavy as hell.
IMO... you can never have too much of a footprint if it fits nicely.

overkill IMO. Although all that rubber is required to prevent wheel spin.

What are the advantages of having the rear wheels one inch larger in diameter over the front wheels? Does anyone know who makes those wheels?

On this particular application probably not much. But u may want to consult with Lamborghini as they have done 2 different sizes since the Countach up to the current Murci!
