Your best bet will be to call DSE directly and ask - they know better than anybody what will work (particularly on the front) and what won't. if you run a 275 you don't really need to run a 10" (which I think might be tight), a 9.5 should be (is) fine.

One argument in favor of 19's in the back is that it gives you a bunch better tire selection. With current Corvette's using a 275/35-18 and 325/30-19 combo you are guaranteed a good selection - plus you have the alternative of a 305/30-19 (which is the same size as a 315-18 in most cases). Some larger sizes in 18s are getting harder to find as fewer cars run them and most "new" tires favor more common "current" sizes (i.e. Michelin Pilot Super Sports).

Just my two bits. Again - I would call DSE for their input.
