You are measuring inches where I am comparing millimeters (more precise).

I scrapped the 265/35 tires and opted for 255/35 instead. The front tires are still slightly taller than the rear, but visually hard to discern.

IMO- the front 265/35 was visibly taller than the 295/30 rear. A difference I couldn't live with...

The 305/30 is 91.5 mm and the 265/35 is 92.75 mm with a difference of 1.25 mm.
The 295/30 is 88.5 mm and the 255/35 89.25 mm with a difference of .75 mm.
