I wanted that setup too and same issue lol. I think I might try to sell the 275(someone can use as a rear) and substitute for a 255 front..can't decide though.
Yeah the 275 doesn't have any usual issues you would normally encounter except I can't go as low as I want due to this bump on the fender liner that will occasionally scrape. The other issue is the actual Diameter of the tire is greater than that of the rear 305/30 I run so I have to run the suspension at a lower ride height just to get the front as low/lower than the rear. I've got the front as low as it will go and am only barely lower than the rear. Apparently there is an issue if the front is higher than the rear(I can't explain it) but something with steering angle as compared with the angle of the rest of the car in reference to the ground and it causes the steering wheel to act weird (i.e. quiver at speeds higher than 65-70) I've had the car and it still does it but when I lower the front to be lower than the rear it goes away completely. No Idea and I've never heard of this before.
Clif: Having a larger diameter front setup compared to rear causes funky issues with handling.
