You'll also want to run different profiles front and rear. If you're going to run a 35 profile at the front then you'll need to run a 30 profile at the back in order to keep the rolling diameters more closely matched. 285 on a +40 rear will probably rub on the guards over bumps if the car is lowered, would be close though.

Use this website as a guide:http://www.willtheyfit.com/Problem with FG's is that there isn't really any guard to roll at the rear, your paint will generally just crack unfortunately.But as WB said, they're great tyres!
