Will going 235 front, 255 rear be a bad decision?

Editing this post to ask a different question.

I will be purchasing Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires to put on my factory staggered 19 inch wheels.

Basically I want to know if going to 235 /40 / 19 on the front while keeping the 255 / 35 / 19 in the rear will cause any issues. I want the fronts to look a little meaner and fill the wheel well a bit more.

I was considering a 235/265 setup but it seems from everything I have read that the 265 on the 8.5 inch wheel isn’t the greatest idea. Any opinions on this with Michelin pilot sport 4s specifically? Concerns seem to be tire bulge, although I’m not sure how these tires are in that regard. The Bridgestones currently on already look a little bulgey with 255

Hopefully someone can weigh in on this.
