Default Tyre help please

I'm after some advice. I have 19x8.5 and 19x9.5. From reading your posts I've narrowed it down to the following spec tyres

1. 245/275/35
2. 255/275/35
3. 255/285/35

I've read differing opinions regarding sizes. Some say 255/275/35 is the best as it's the closest to stock specs and will have less understeer than the others. But others say 285 is actually closer to stock specs depending on tyre brand. My main concern is not upsetting VDC.

Thanks for your help. People's experiences with running these set-ups appreciated (and whether they've had any probs with VDC etc).

255 on a 8.5 is a little too wide for the wheel.
personally i think with the 8.5 / 9.5 combo its a headache if u try to find the right size tire that eliminates understeer and also within factory spec.

so i'd say go with something like 245/35 265/35, even tho they are smaller than stock diameters

goodluck
