Another Tire question for 19s *VDC issues*

I'm about to get a new set of rims looking at 19x8F +25 and 19x9.5R +30. Will these tire configuration work without setting off the VDC? I'm looking at putting 245/45/19 in the front and 275/40/19. Also will this cause any rubbing with stock height?

I thnk that's a bit too big. You should be running 245/35 and 275/35. the 45s and 40s may rub.

I kinda like a little more rubber for the comfort... will there be any problems if the front and rears are off by 5 series? What about 40 series up front and 35 in the rear? Any issues there?

why not just keep it the same? oem settings on the 18's and on the 19's oem tires are both the same front and rear.....will 40 series rub? and also does it fill the gap better? i'm really low as it is with my lip kit and not even dropped ....will the 19's with 40's sit at the same height as my 18's do with 45series???
thanks.....i'm also curious on why they sell aftermarket wheels and tires with different sidewalls for front and rear when there the same on stock's and on the newer g 19's wheels

Tire selection is more important if you are concerned about ride comfort. Also, the size you are looking at are not common, they might not make such sizes.
