Very nice. Just curious what is the reasoning behind going 35 on the front and 30 on the back?
The 35/30 number is not a direct measure of the height of the side wall, the 245/295 is for the tire width. Instead that 30/35 number is a percentage of the width. So the front tires have a sidewall height 35% of their width and the rear tires have a sidewall height 30% of their width. In the end, even though the percentages are different, the actual sidewall height matches.

So if he would have gone 35f/35r the side walls would not have matched?

Correct. Think about it. 35% of 245 is 87.5, and 35% of 295 is 103.3, thats not even close. On the other hand, 30% of 295 is 88.5, which is very close to 87.5.
