Default C6 rims on T/A 18/19 combo questions...HELP NEEDED

Ok heres the deal...I can pick up a set of '05 polished C6 rims for my '00 T/A with the stock Eagles F1's only 1,500 miles for $800. I have the SLP bilstein/eibach suspension set-up.

Tire size:
front: P245/40ZR-18
rear: P285/35ZR-19


I need to pull the trigger but i need some pictures, and tech advice. I HAVE READ ALOT about this but i want some last minute advice and help.

I want to know:

1. How bad will it affect the ABS and traction control? I was thinking of doing the CTS-V brake set-up. Also must you disable the ABS because of the CTS-V set-up?

2. Is the staggered set-up (18/19) teeth rattling? Also what are your opinions?

3. ANY PICTURES and additional comments of anything are welcomed!!

THANKS!!

285 is awfully small for a 19 inch wheel is it not?

some have problems, some dont... its hit or miss for some reason. imo, they are too big.. you shouldnt go over 18" rims... especially if you have any sort of drop... if they are oem with the F1s they will likely rub during aggressive turning or when you have a rear passenger... I wouldnt go that big unless you have the means to make them fit properly...

I thought it said 295s.. the ones on those rims are too small... I thought they came with 295s or 305s??? I wouldnt do it
