Just personal preference. The 295/40 on the rear was perfect in sidewall height and overall width for me. I looked at the 245/40 and the 255/40 for the front but I wanted something a little taller, while staying shorter than the rear tires. The 245/45 is about 1/2" shorter in height than the 295/40, so it was just what I was looking for.
