why the better shocks on the rear? I'd want them on the front closer to where I ride and where all the weight is.

As for tires it's more about width than height. A 295 is usually a 34 but depends on the manufacturer. The spindle pushes the tires out so your away from the frame but closer to the fender and valance. You can trim the valance easy so you might be able to get away with a 295 on a stock wheel.

I meant to get the rs9000s for the front and back, but i checked the wrong box when ordering the lift.
