I don't understand the point of that wheel. It has a Ro_Ja center cap but still retains the Gram Light "g." So put a Gram Light sticker on the spokes and replace the center cap with Rays...does that make it a 57S Pro?

You will most likely rub in the front so you should also get the front camber kit, add some negative camber, and probably remove a portion of your front fender lining as well.

you'll prob. be rubbing a bit in the back, hard to tell unless you throw them on and mess with your set up.

As others mentioned the front may rub, no big deal and easy to deal with. Next thing is the retarded look of mounting front tires on the rear of the car, 275/30-19 is a front tire, 275/35-19 is a rear tire. It does not fill out the wheel well arch , will leave you will more fender gap, will cause VDC/TCS and minor ABS issues.

I run this exact set up right now with no problem at all. the goal is to keep the OD the same or as close to the same front and rear. If i ran a 275/35/19 it would put me at almost 1 inch taller then the front.

245/35/19=25.9
275/30/19=25.6
275/35/19=26.6

You want the rear tire to be taller than the front, that is what the electronics ar set for. Look at OEM tire heights and you will notice that. If you want the same look on the sidewall, best this to do is stagger the wheel size 19 front and 20 rear, then you will get the same sidewall height (look) without causing problems.

Similar ? I am thinking of running a separate track setup square 18x9.5 et45's w/ 285/40.
In general, I have heard positive things about square, neutral setups, w the addition of being able to rotate freely?
Any opinions?

Square = good.

285/45/18 not good. I'd also try a larger wheel if you can swing it, and a 30 or 35 series on the 285 tire.
