Default 245/255/265 up front?

I've got some Ruff Racing 279's and I just ordered a pair of 285/30/19 for the rear, should I run 245, 255, or 265 for the front? They are all around the same price, but I don't know if 265 would just be dead weight or not. Thanks.

Okay so there's more to it, I'm deciding between these two, both Hankook Ventus Sport K104

265/30/19

OR

255/40/19

or I could get the Falken FK-451 in 245/35/19

I have 8.5 fr and im running 255/35/19 my old rears were 9.5's with 285/35/19's and i loved that setup. My new rears are 10's and i'll still be running 285/35's however i'd probably move to 265/30/19 and 295 or 305/30/19

do you think the 255/40 is too high profile compared to the 285/30 rear? if so then i should go with the 265/30 right? the 30 just makes me worry about bending a rim if i hit anything...
