stock front aventador tires are puny 225/35/19 on 9.0!!!

rear tires on the other hand...

None of the above would be of much use without suitable rubber. How do these massive Pirelli P Zeros grab you? They certainly grab the asphalt. For the record you're looking at 225/35R19 fronts mounted on 19-by-9 rims. The rears are 335/30R20 (that's another 50% wider, folks) and they live on 20-by-12 rims. Forged alloys all around, of course.

Maybe it has a huge rear-weight bias. I do find that very strange and wonder how it will affect lap times, or if they even care.

I think new Lambo corp probably cares "some", old lambo corp from the 80's, hell no, as long as it looks cool, it's a go.

The Aventador has the second quickest time around Top Gear's track. I think it will be ok.

It probably doesn't need the big tire up front because its sure a light car. The front end on that thing wouldn't have much weight at all!

I've heard that it drove like sh*t, but God bless 'em for making these:

997.2 GT3 RS and GT2 come with 245/35/19 and 325/30/19. I guess the new lambo has similar weight ratio for front and rear as the 911's.
