It was comical when I bought my car, the dealer wanted a $200 upgrade fee for the 295 where as the 275 were "stock". I quickly realized to purchase 295 at the time were $200 so I could have both for the price of the upgrade.

In the end how much larger footprint to you gain with the 295's over the 275's. Friction = Force * coeffecient of friction so if your tire is not as wide you have more psi then a larger tire that has less psi, in the end I bet the difference is negligible. Get the 275's and never worry about rub marks, rock being flung outside the wheel well etc.
