Graphite: What size are you using on the front ? 255x35x19s are 26" tires and want to match to avoid confusing the ABS.
He'll need to confirm his specific purchase, but in my case, since I also have the Barum Bravuris 3HMs on my car, the front tire is the standard profile (225/40x18). See attached.

For some owners, the Barum Bravuris 3HM isn't available in the typical wider tire (265, 275, 285) some folks like to use for the rears. But I like to stay with the original OEM setup (255/35x19) and the Barum Bravuris 3HM does come in that size. Performance at a reasonable cost.

I've attached a files showing the various options (my perspective) on plus tire sizes for the Crossfire.
