Default 2012 XJL SuperSport tires

Spring is here and time to bring the car out but it's in need of new tires Car has the 20" Motiva wheels with the OEM Perelli's.
Definitely won't be putting them back on.
The Michelin Super Sport all season are my preferred.
Question is has anyone gone with a different size?
Currently has 245/40-20 fronts and 275/35-20 rears.
I did see a guy in Malaysia went up one size on both to 255/40-20 and 285/35-20 with no problem.
Has anyone gone to. 245/45-20 and 275/40-20
Same width but 1" taller.
Would like to see just a little more tire between the wheel and the road.

If you like to go 245/45 and 275/40 you have to jo to 19" rim.
