OZ HLT's 8.5 on 245 width?

According to Tirerack.com, the suggested All Season tires are only available in 20" styles, not 19". So I'm wondering if the 245 width is to much for the OZ Ultraleggera HLT 20x8.5? That means about .5" extra rubber on each side of the wheel.

Won't it look odd or like it's sagging?

A 245 tire on an 8.5" wide rim is just right.
Here is a pic of 245 AS tires on an 8.5 rim.

Nice. Would 275 on a 9.5 be too wide?

It's a perfect size for a 9.5" rim.

Since the OEM is 275 rear and 245 front, will there be a slight performance variation if I run just 245's on the car?

From Infiniti's website about the stock 19's:

10-spoke 19 x 8.5-inch (front), 19 x 9.0-inch (rear) aluminum-alloy wheels with 225/45R19 (front), 245/40R19 (rear) W-rated summer performance tires
