a 275,35 is a stretch to me ..but like someone posted for autox it serves a purpose, and a 285/35 wont be as i looked but the overall diameter is smaller and on a staggered setup it would look goofy running a smaller diameter tire in the back..
i run 285/40 rear, 275/35 front on stock pp rims.. i wish it would let me post pics but for some reason i cant get them small enough to post

I run a 19x10 275/35/19 on the rear, and a 19x8.5 245/40/19 front. those sizes are the same circumference as my factory 235/50/18 wheels, and the look of the car is the same as my stock wheel/tire setup.

If the stock PP wheels are a 9 inch wheel, I believe you only really want to run up to a 265/275 at the most. Going wider would bulge the tire and compromise handling.

If the stock size is 235/50r18 and you go to 285/35r19, you will be going 64.05 mph when your speedometer reads 65. I considered 40 series but then then the speedo is off about 1 mph the other way. Besides, with the extra weight of larger tires, I was happy to get effectively lower gearing with the slightly smaller diameter. With 245/40r19s on the front, the diameters are virtually the same front and back.

pictures? I am thinking of putting 10's all way around myself ;-)
The AM wheels are the wrong offset for a square setup. Though I think it has been done with spacers.

Just get the OE Wheels PP replicas, they work front and rear without spacers and are generally cheaper than the AM PP replicas.

285/35 rear matched with your 275/35 fronts would not result in a smaller diameter in the rear.

You got me scratching my head, OEM replicas other than AM? can you share some vendors?

You want to stay as close to factory circumference to keep the speedo accurate
Why is this even a thing? The change is so small it doesn't matter. If you want accurate speed, get a 10hz GPS. Or volunteer to test your sheriff's radar/lidar gun.
