Lightbulb tire size change - help needed

Hi Porsche Family,
I have 275/30/19 on my rear Porsche 996 Cabriolet. I want to put 295/30/19 on the rear now...anyone with opinions on this? I also thought about changing the front from 235/35/19 to 255/35/19 but don't think its necessary...help a brotha out..

295 should be fine in the rear

255 in front might rub, wouldn't be necessary to increase the front if you go 295 in the rear.

FWIW, I run 315 in the rear (12 in rear) with 235 up front
