The 275/35 is much taller than the 245/35 fronts. On the other hand, if you can fit 285/30, that would be perfectly matched to the fronts. I'm thinking about trying out 285/30 on my next set, but not sure if I want to chance it with rubbing issues.

245 x 0.35 = 85.75 mm sidewall
275 x 0.35 = 96.25 mm sidewall
275 x 0.30 = 82.50 mm sidewall
285 x 0.30 = 85.50 mm sidewall
Sorry you are right. 275/30 seems to be the better size. Are we sure a 285/30 wont fit?
