Default Tire Size Question

I'm currently running 275-40-17 on the front and 285-35-18 on the back. Would there be any AH/TC issues if I switch to a 295-35-18 on the rear. I know its been discussed but I can't find it.

I've been running tires sized 275-40-17 front and 295-35-18 rear on my 2001 Z06 for the last five years. I have not had any problems with active handling or traction control.
