8.5" OEM rear rims on the front?

The staggered setup on my 06 coupe is bugging me because I go through 2 sets of rear tires and the fronts still have some life. So I just bought a 2nd set of 19" OEM Rays rims and I'm planning to use the slightly wider 8.5" rear rims on the front as well and run 255/35/19's all around.

Rolling diameters are within 3% (I should be VDC safe) and the slight difference in offset I will manage with spacers (I already have +25 in the rear, but I will likely need to get a smaller front spacer with the wider front rim/tire).

Anyone tried this or see any issues?
