F: 265/30/20 r:285:35/20

Hi all, just wanted to get some feedback on a very strange setup on my current F82 (2018 Comp Spec). The car was imported with the following tire specs on the 666m rims:

Front: 265/30/20
Rear:285:35/20

The car looks weird, more like a semi drag car with the inflated tires in the back. It has also left a very big gap at the front of the car due to the mismatched tire size.

Was wondering whats everyone's feedback on the following options:
1) Replace the rears with 275/30/20 or 285/30/20
2) Replace the fronts with 265/35/20 (thicker tires to close the gap?)

Not an expert in tires but the tires have only clocked less than 700 miles but it looks hideous and I wanted to lower the car but will get rubbing on the rear if I do. Not sure if anyone faced the same issue but any advice is most appreciated 😊

Thanks. Are 275/30 for the rears too narrow?
