I would like to have the same wheel setup but 285/35 for my rear wouldnt work because I have TCS and the diameter change is over 3% so my TCS will randomly kick in because it will think the tires are slipping. Only thing in the 285 range that would work on my car is 285/30

If you look it will show you that 285/30/19 is the only tire setup in 285 range that isnt over the 3% diameter change over the stock tires.

Go to www.1010tires.com and then tell me im wrong about the 285/35/19.

As far the the rear upsize is concerned, 275/35 is ever so slightly shorter than OEM, and 285/35 is slightly taller than stock. Same goes with the 245/35 front and 255/35 rear.
All these measurements are made against the OEM tire sizes of 225/45-18 front and 245/45-18 rear. There are 2 other OEM tire sizes for a Z, (17's and the 18f 19R combo) but the difference is insignificant and the computer doesn't care.
SO YES YOU ARE WRONG, PLEASE TRY AGAIN.
