You don't NEED them but if you have the spare $80, it's always nice to get hardened.

And you might as well....I assume that you have a good amount of miles on your 95.

The stock PR's are decent, and the CC305 isn't a very big cam, so I assume you arent using a very stiff valve spring. If that's the case, and they appear to be in good shape (roll them along a pane of glass to check for straightness) you can reuse them. If you decide to replace them, get pushrod made from 0.080" tubing. These are more rigid than the stockers. Almost all aftermarket pushrods are hardened, which is advantageous if you decide to you guideplates at some point.

I'm running stock pushrods with the HOTcam. I think it's similar in size to a cc305.
