255 35 R19 F 295 30 R19 R problem, help!!

So I just installed 295 30 19's Falken Azenis, and I still have my Pilot's with the above listed size in the front. In order not to rub I also raised my car about .75 inch all around, I'm on KW coilovers. I am supercharged and I thought this would be a good size to run....
Problem is that with traction control on or mdm on, even a harder lane change sets off the stability or traction control. Its as if the car is loosing traction... It feels as if my tires are flat!
With traction and stability off car still doesnt handle as well as it did, but since stability and traction are not kicking in its a lot more drive-able....
What do you guys think is the problem???
Rear tires (falken) just crappy and handle that bad?
Stability and traction thrown off due to difference in tire sizes?
Did I screw something up when I raised the car on coils?
Or else?

Thanks!!!!

I'm guessing it's the non matching tires. I would just get the mpss rears.

I cheaped out on tires due to my negative camber, and being supercharged I will go through tires quick! And, my front ones are due soon...

Alignment is next week... After doing some research I'm thinking that maybe these tires need to be broken in some more? I only got 100 miles on them... Time will tell...
