Default tire size question

I need to replace my stock tires, and was wondering if a slightly larger size can be used all around, or possibly just on the back, any suggestions, or input about sizes, would be greatly appreciated, thanks much

I have a similar question. I want to get the largest without tubbing and without rubbing. What sizes would describe these requirements?

295/35 is as far as you should go on a 9.5" wheel.

315/30 is as far as you should go on a 10.5" wheel.
