C5 Z06 staggered rims tire recommendations.

On my car I have a set of Z06 rims, front: 17x9.5, rear: 18x10.5. I've already got the rims to fit fine my main issue is I've been having real troubles finding a good set of tires as the 265/40r17 I would ideally go with isn't really made anymore. I would like to keep 295 in the rear cause going bigger probably won't fit as it's already super tight. I've seen some people run 275 or 255 in front but the 275 would make the sidewall bigger than the rear and possibly cause clearance issues but at the same time I need as much cushion as possible because it's already lowered and rides stiff enough as is. I'm curious if anyone is running them and what you would recommend for these wheels. (Yes I've thought about getting different rims but I really love the way these look on the car)...
