It's a shame, I'm going to get some 265/30/21 tomorrow then get them painted as I really don't want the ally to oxidize.

I think they are all running pretty narrow tires to get that real low ride. At Jason and Luke's height they would be ripping the arches clean off with 285/30s.

I don't think you can change just the front. With 4WD don't you need the wheel circumference to be the same front to back? Definitely what I was lead to believe. If that isn't the case then yes that's what I shall do.

Depends if you can get a 265 width tyre with the right sidewall height to maintain the same wheel circumference.
265/35 is 2% bigger. 265/30 is 1.7% smaller so is the closest match. I'm not sure if that is close enough to not affect the quattro or not though so maybe best to go for all 4.
255/35 is only a 1% difference but that is probably too stretched on a 9.5" rim.
