06 S65 Tires

I need to change the tires on my 06 S65. They have the original 245/40/19 front and 275/35/19 rear. I was wondering what would be biggest tires I can put on the front and rear? I was just curious if anyone put bigger tires on, and how they look, and if you are happy with the bigger tires? I was thinking of going with 255/40/19 in the front and 285/35/19 in the rear. Just wanted to get some feedback. Thanks

I am running the sizes you want to run. I have a little rubbing over bumps. Also have aftermarket rims. If I had to do it again I would do the same, the looks with wider tires are great. Hell I would go with some renntech rims with 295 if I could.

Will changing the tire sizes to what I mentioned above, on the stock rims affect my speedometer? I want to get the wider tires, but don't want to sacrifice speedometer function to do it. Thanks
