Default Recommended Tire Size

What tire sizes are most people using (front/rear)? Most of the SPF dealers I've spoken with offer a standard 255/60/15 front and 275/60/15 rear. This combo has the rear tire 1" taller than the front. These same dealers also recommend upgrading the rear tire to a 295/50/15 for increased tire width. When this is done, the rear tire will now be almost a 1/2" shorter than the front tire. Should the front tire be downsized to a 245/60/15 to keep the tire heights the same? Will it make that big of a difference? What do you have and are you happy with the "look"/stance of the car?
