Default 19" tire question

i noticed a lot of people are running 35 series tires up front and 30 series tires in the rear. my question is why not 35 front AND rear? is it because 30 series in the rear is closer to the stock wheel/tire diameter? if so.. then why not 30 series in the front as well?

your more than likely to hit bumps with the fronts first before being able to slow down. 35's in the front would be able to hold up much better than 30's so you won't bend your rims.
