You'd be better off with 285/30/19, but I don't know how that will affect tire choices. 285/35/19 might be too large of a stagger for VDC, but definately will be taller than stock.

Actually its almost right on for size , a hair larger , while the 275/35 is a hair shorter. Neither will work with his front tires .

The rears would be way too tall for the fronts. They are more than 2" taller!!! That much stagger will probably throw VDC/TCS off.

Actually, 285/30/19 is about 3.xx% smaller than stock and the 245/30/19 is 4.xx% smaller thank stock. The variance beween the front and rear is <4%, he should be fine with that sizing.
