I run 19's all the way around, with 275/30's on front and 295/35's on back. My active handling has been acting up lately, but Ive spoken to a few people and it seems to be unrelated.

295/30/18 is way too short of a tire. At 25" tall, they will be shorter than your front tires, and yes, this will mess up your TC everytime.
295/35/18 is about 1" taller and is what you need.

He has a '98. Regular TC isn't affected by different size tires, nor is the ABS, but can mess with active handling, but I don't think many '98's had active handling...if it was even available then...
