Your dropping from an OD of 25.5" to an OD of 25.2" in front and going up from 25.6" to 26.6" in the rear. So, you're going from a difference front to rear of .3" (larger in front) to 1.4" (larger in rear) in diameter. You'll have a definite rake. Is that what you want? I'm not sure if the speedo/odo comes of the front or wheel. If it's the rear, that's a definite difference.

275/35/19 is way too tall for the the IS and will throw off your speedo/odo 275/30 is the correct size in that width. Or you could go with a 255/35 if you want the 35 series in the rear, but the sidewall is not much different going from one size to the other. Remember that the series is a percentage of the width.
If you ran 225/35F 255/35R you would be almost identical with stock rolling diameter, which is already raked.

I have a 265/35/19 rear tire mounted on 19 x 9.5 wheel. It is the closest you'll get to the diameter of the stock wheels and tires, (in the rear) so if anything this would have the least affect on the speedo/odo. Be warned though that this is a very odd size for some reason, and the few brands that have this size available are usually expensive.
