why 295 bcuz it will stand out of the pack even in u go with 8.5 it doen't give it dat look and going 295 i achieve what i wanted not being another max with 22's .. i achieve de lexus benz look.....
thats cool i had no idea 295s fit on the back of a maxima, your car must look sick
Lol. Looks like I better be on my way home, to my home of logic. There is zero benefits to a staggered setup on a fwd. Why would you want the skinnier tires on the portion of your car that does all the work? As Tuvok would say "That would be illogical."
I think so too. Even though, I must say if you have it like that, you should drive slow and steady all the time. But, I would like the look too. Though, if I did something like that, I would have same tire on all 4 wheels.
Matt and anyone else if u are curious how 295 look on a 09 max got to my page in cardomain user name latinoandproud you'll see... u dont have too like it, I'm just different i just decided go w/ high end wheels and not being like everyone else...
Why would you stagger a set of wheels on a FWD car? 
8.5" wide wheels are ideal and 9.0" are the max on these cars.
I'd recommend a 245/30/R22 to keep rubbing to a minimum as 255s will be far more likely to cause rubbing issues.
Match your wheels sizes, don't stagger, and make sure the wheels accent the car's characteristics.
