Default Max width front/rear tires on IS350 18s?

Seeing factory tires specs are 225/40/18 front & 255/40/18 rear, I wanted to see others thoughts about running 235/40/18s up front and 275/40/18s in the rear? This would still be on the stock 18s with stock Sport pkg suspension.

Rubbing issues perhaps? If you have ran similar tires w/o issue I'd appreciate your reply. BTW, I'd like to keep my 40 series sidewall.

Thanks!

Along with that tire question, I'll ask a TPMS related question. Is a TPMS "rebuild" kit really necessary? Car/wheels only have 31k on them, and the OE Dunlop tires need replacing...but should I have the techs touch the TPMS parts?

Thanks!
