I've run 245/35 fronts for a few years at stock-ish suspension height and camber. Marginal, at best, I reckon. You'll probably always have some kind of rub, but it might be worth it (especially if the rubbing settles down without going through the liners fully).
245/35 & 265/35 is a really sweet setup in terms of ride/handling, for example, and has that Porsche RS fitment look about it. Going from that to a 30 profile on the rear is a noticeable step down in comfort.
Already gone through the liner

On the outer edge of the liner where the wing/bumper joins ?

Yes
just behind the side reflector on the bumper.
