Has anyone had issues with their ABS or VDC acting up after changing from the OEM setup to a few sizes up?

I had a local tire shop tell me that they would not feel comfortable in selling me 305's for the rears and 275's for the fronts since it may tell the ABS or ESC to turn on because of the differences in sizes from the originals. I want to get the Hankook Ventus V12 Evo2 and in the following sizes...

F: 305/30-19
R: 275/35-19

I have the stock Sport/Touring 19's on my 40th and want to go up 3 sizes but want to get a few opinions before I order my new tires. BYW, the local Nissan dealer said that they would install any tires that I bring to them, so I am a little confused.

Any help is much appreciated...
