Is it because you want to keep the rear and front diameters similar? Aren't the numbers I ran within reasonable limit?
All depends on the sizing, VDC is generally happy if you can maintain stagger with the fronts being less than 1% greater than the rears

The stock setup of 245-40-19 and 275-35-19 rear is .5% larger in the front which will not be detected by the VDC/TCS

255-35-20 & 285-30-20 is 1.1% larger in front which could possibly risk the VDC/TCS going off with

Best way to be safe is to use a tire size calculator:
