Need tire advise for Sedan with Coupe 19's

Okay before everyone bashes... Ive searched and havent come up with any info thats Im tryin to find out....
Heres the issues I'm having.... I want my rear model tires to match my front model tires. I purschased BFGoodrich KDW t/a 2 for the rears(stock 245/40-19)....and I gotta say...I fell in love with this tire perforamnce,then the look of the design. That been said I'm having issues finding the stock size for the front in this model.

---So I'm wondering if I went the same size as the rears (even though .5 inch less narrower) is it gonna cause any issues with the VDC??? anyone have pictures of 245/40 on the front and back on coupe rims? I love how the back looks with the stock size but Im afraid the fronts wont sit right. Any info would be appreicated. Thanks.

You'll be fine with 245/40/19 all around. Several are either running that set up or have in the past. Here are a couple of pics from when I had mine on.

Tires in the front have no problems with rubbing. I was dropped on H Techs in those pics but had to roll the rear fenders. Still no rubbing in the front with S techs and now I'm dropped on Tanabe coils and still no rubbing in the front. Here's the current stance on coils.
