Tom,
I run 245/40 fronts and 335/35 rears.

I don't think the rears are a problem, although (disclaimer) since I  
can use mustang wheels on the rear I am told that my brake setup is  
different(????) - we should hope Jack chimes in on this one.  At any  
rate I have tons of room compared to the fronts.

The fronts, I would go a size smaller.  I swear I don't know how this  
fits on my car.  maybe my fenders have been "rolled" but it seems to  
NOT be the case.
I have rubbed the fenders (two people turning into a funky driveway)  
but track days have never been a problem.

As they say YMMV (all the cars are different) and once  
suspension/brakes have been changed who KNOW what might be the case.   
Borrow some wheels maybe?
