From the other forums it seems a couple options exist for square setup without rubbing and within 1% of rear tire size:

19in: 19x10 285/35 et10 to et15
20in: 20x10 285/30 et10 to et12

If you're willing to risk rubbing issues you can do 295/30 or more aggressive et poke.

Deactivate the sound getting piped in.

That's probably it. The car is near perfect as is.
