I realize even 255 really isn't enough for the front, and that's why I run a 275/40/17 on 17x9 +15 square setup for the track. The offset is so low on these wheels that I don't think anything more than a 255 would fit.
Well all right! The lack of the Z badge threw me off. . . what size is your rear tire? I wonder if you could run a 275/30/19 up front - wider, but a bit shorter than a 255/35. 255 front is still "above the norm" since most opt for a 245.
Side shot? Rubbage? I ran our stock height ZR with 19x10.5 +23 and 305/30/19 PS2s and it rubbed. It did not rub at +28. I also ask because I'm considering a set of 10.5" +15 wheels, but want to put a 305 on it but am not sure it'll work.

I've never even thought about running a 30 profile; I'll look into it. Had to remove the screw in the fender and it has stopped rubbing.

305 Hoosiers? I don't know man................me thinks it will be rubbage city.
I already bought 305 Kumho V710s for autox (on clearance for $200/tire at TTR), and any thoughts of going with a larger-than 295 Hoosier are out the door until I buy much wider wheels since their next size up is 315, and it is a MONSTER (1" wider than the 295) and requires an 11-12" wheel. I'm all over the place with the next step of wheels lately, as I'm considering 9.5" and 10.5" RPF1s after considering the new PF01 as you probably saw as well as some WedSport TC105Ns in 18x9.5x4.
"BlowMyS14" runs the 18x10.5 +15 x 4 RPF1s with 285/30s with a 15mm spacer in the rear. He said the 285 V710s were fine, but the 285 Hoosiers rubbed in the back until he removed the spacer. He had rolled both the front and the back.
I figure I can run the 305s on the 18x10 RPF1s I currently have - it's a little oversized though that's common for autoxers, which leaves me needing new track wheels for the 285/295 Hoosiers. The 285s require a 10" wheel, but the 295s, with their taller sidewall, can accommodate a 9.5" wheel. Decisions, decisions. . .

Ill have a side shot soon, that pic i didnt have any finger gap and i only rubbed on hard dibs. I lowered it another inch and it rubbed bad, got it down to +22 and it still rubs. i'll pull my fenders and get to +12 soon. Im almost as low as i was with stretched tires but with fat 305s.

They should have settled by now, its not gonna get any lower after 3weeks. Not calling your car out, i think it looks great. Just that to me, slappping on wide tires on aggressive offset wheels on a slammed car is "aggressive" like the title states. Anyone can slam a car with weak offsets, or mount huge tires on aggressive rims with multi finger fender gaps. Its putting them together thats challenging (this is why the aggressive/stretched tire thread is so popular).

What does TTR stand for......I would be interested in checking out some 710's for autox.
i guess gf210 arent good enough here. but where i live in new england the roads are pretty bad and i dont feel like messing up my front bumper and scraping everywhere i go.

Dude I hear ya. Do not go any lower. Your vehicle looks great as is. Alot of these guys don't DD their 350 like you and I do. I'll go aggressive offset and fat tire but when I do I'll get made fun of cause it won't be lowered at all due to horrible streets we have here in my city. They're almost as big as this:
