Default Looking for advice on Hoosier tire size

I have been running Pirelli P-zero slicks on my 2003 996TT for DE events. Heading down to Indy for a DE event this week & was thinking about getting a new set of Hoosier R7 slicks for the event.
Would 225/35ZR18 & 295/30ZR18 wheels fit the bill. Hoosier has discontinued a few of the sizes which makes it a little more difficult.
I'm running stock hollow turbo twists for my DE setup.

225/295 should easily fit but I would suggest going with 245/315. That is the size we run on gt3 street cars so there should be plenty of room in the rear for the 315. Wheel size ideally should be 9 front and 11 rear. A 295 hoosier is pretty small for the heavy, high power turbo IMO.
