Your tire size are all wrong! The front is more than 3% bigger than stock and the rear is not even the same as the front. With AWD, you want to try to get the front and the rear as close as possible.

Check out the wheel thread and see what people are running or call up Vossen and see what they recommend.
A better size would be 235/30/20 and 275/25/20 depending on your rim offset and rim width.

The front tires (245/35/20) are too tall. You may want to get new tire sizes front and rear.

19s probably won't ride much different than 20s from what other members say here. This is why I have one set of 20s which I basically use for 3 months, then I have 18s for the rest of the year. I'm from NY and drive to Queens and Bronx sometimes and roads suck even in the summer. Nyc is not 20" friendly.

I have 245/35/19 for my front. This is as close as it gets to stock tire rolling diameter.
My front wheels is 19x8.5 with +32 offset.
