Thank you,
I'm going to go with the 255/35-20 front and the 295/30-20 rear. I dug and dug and found that the 245/front will look visually different compared to the rear if I went with 295 rear.

The diameter on 255/35-20 is 26.73 and will have the same "protrusion and depth" as the 295 rear.

NOW... the next question is obvious..

What brand tire? Nitto, BR, Pirelli, Falk, etc??
( the critaria (1):must be able to rotate the rears and then rotate the fronts. Non asymmetrical recommendations. (2) comfort and sportiness - moving from 19 to 20 can make for a ruff ride, the right tire can minimize that.
(3) Road noise - after all it is a roadster, lesser is better

Although I'm sure my exhaust choice will play a greater roll for noise in the opposite direction - Tanabe cat back and their Y-pipe, but some tires have "excessive" road noise
