Why only one size difference? Are you tuning the suspension to handle this or are these simply the choices for one end? The Kumho V700 Victoracers have the 255/40 size but the other is 245/45 (I wouldn't be so worried about the front being .3" taller).

Anyone else notice that Tire Rack's site no longer mentions the V710s?
