Hi ! I buy new wheel to my car 996 turbo 2003 mod. here is question, I have front 235/35-19 and back 315/25-19, I just buy new rear wheel 305/30-19 is that ok about 4 wheel drive and the different between front and back, thanks from Rolf.
 
This comes up quite a bit.

You need to make sure the rolling radius on the front and rear axles are as close as possible to preserve the life of the 4wd system. Porsche specify an allowable tolerance (it maybe in the handbook).

A quick check with a tyres calculator says

Ideally run 315/25/19 rear and 225/35/19 front and this gives 801 revolutions per mile both ends.

Your 235/35 front currently gives 792 revs per mile and your rears give 770 revolutions per mile and that assumes new tyres (worn ones will give differences of course)

Easiest way is to stick with the factory recommend sizes.
