My CCW C10s, 18x10.5 and 18X13, with Toyo R888s 295/30/18 and 335/30/18. I could go wider in the rear, but 335 is the largest 18 inch R888. You'll have better tire selection and less rotating weight with the 18 inch rear.

Nope. John at CCW knows his stuff. Even the color was his idea. I was going to do black and he asked if I'd like to consider something else. The great thing is I have tires 5 sizes wider than stock (could be wider) and the wheels and tires are actually lighter than the smaller stock setup.

I myself run 18X10.5s in the front with Toyo R888 295/30/18s under stock C6 fenders.
Bigger diameter wheels and tires just add weight (rotational weight). That's never a good thing. Pick the smallest wheels that will accomodate the widest tires and biggest brakes you'll need.

No, it isn't. Believe it or not there is a forum member that has run Toyo R888 335/30/18s under the stock rear fenders. I'm not saying it's optimum, but it has been done.
