Your car you run what you want.
MY thoughts are if it's a sports car, keep some meat up front. Drag/Muscle can have some skinny front but things that were supposed to go around corners....
Also, it's a big wheel well to fill...
As for interference, as stated, there isn't a lot of room on the brake bracket (why they get moved sometimes) and it depends on the tires also.
I had 245's on stock rims scrub the bracket lightly. Others have been fine.
I think spacers will likely be needed to get the tire back out

Probably need a spacer, have 8.5s on my rear and 7 in front no noticeable difference with same width tires.
