Default Tires

Hey guys I have a C5 19/18 c6 rims. currently I have 275/30/19s on the rear and 245/45/18s on the front. I dont like the front tires looking larger than the rear.

I want to know if 275/40/19s will fit on the rear. Not worried about TPMS status none of mine work anyway.

Just want to know if it will fit or rub period.

I also have c6 rims on my c5. My back tires are 275/40/19 Pirelli pzero rosso. I have one place that did rub a little bit, the passenger side middle of tire. This was only when driving and going over a hump on the hwy. I,m pretty sure its not because of my tire.
