I used to run BFG R1s 335/30-18 with no issues. -2.5 deg on rear camber.

That's a lot of rear tire...are you able to increase the front width too?

I'd just stick with the 255/35 and 315/30 combo as that is a lot of tire as well.

I have 335 RA1 on right now, wheel is 18x12 +69mm (9.25" backspace).
unless you can get 335 significantly cheaper than 315 imho there is no real benefit in doing it. you may need to adjust sways a bit to compensate for more grip in rear.
