Default 19 x 9.5 fronts = 275 tire ????

Those people running wheel sizes of 19 x 9.5 up front, do you use 275's up front or something smaller ?
and if I go with a 19 x 10.5 at back, can i use a 275 tire or should i go with a 285, and what series tires should i go with , 30's or 35 series ????

right now im running some 19 x 8.5 / 245/ 35 front.
....................................19 x 9.5 /275/ 30 back.

I'm running 255/35/19 for a 9.5 wheel up front and 275/35/19 for a 10.5 wheel out back.

The 255 should be fine up front. I could run a 285 out back but Michelin didn't have the size when I got my tires.

You don't even know his offset. You can't make statements like that. In fact nobody asked his offset. The 3 factors that determine whether you will rub are:

Wheel Width
Wheel offset
Tire Width

With the first 2 being the most important.

its possible. someone l know runs a 275 in the front and a 295 in the rear.

like king tut said, it really depends on width and offset of the rim.
