Widest rear tires on FD without fender flares
 

I know this has been asked before but I can't find a good answer. What is the widest rear tires someone has ran on an FD without fender flares on say an 18" rim with any offset? I seem to find 295, but somewhere I read 315. Can anyone confirm? Thanks

I read that with a +50 offset a 295 can be wedged under the back, though it may require a fender role or coilovers. I would like to see a picture of that as well.

More interestingly, what would it take to squeeze 285's in the back and 255's in the front... as in what offset/width.. without rolling if that's possible?
