As for looks I cant say what it will look like, in all honesty I think it is preferenced to what wheel you went with.
BUT, mathmatically, I dont know if what you want to do will work...
You rears will be 2.2" larger in circumference, causing them to spin slower than the fronts. I am not sure of the tolerances with the ABS and ESP system, but you might want to make sure that it will not **** those systems off.

i have the same setup of 245/30/20 in the front and 275/30/20 in the front with falken tires. havent had any problems with rubbin in the front at all in town but i remove my wheels wen i go on road trips and put back the oem for accurate mileage and better gas.

Be sure to check the load rating of any tire you use that is not the correct factory size. It might fit the rim but might not be strong enough to safely carry the car at highway speeds.

That sounds about right I think using 285 in the rear is what I'm going to do but the 275 really looks good on my mayas
