The fronts haven't been left alone. The standard SS gets 20x8.5" 245mm tires up front. The 1LE has 20x10" 285mm up front. So front grip has been upgraded and tuned to match the rear end grip.

Fitting 20" 305s all the way around is not possible without modifying fenders up front. Even the ZL1 1LE has wider front fenders, 19" wheels & narrower front suspension to fit 305s upfront.
