But no one cares so go with the 30 series.

*tire width is also in mm, rim size is in inches...
**the #'s reported by tire companie's for their tire sizes are not always exact...you could have a 275/35/19 made by 2 different companies and their tread width may be a little different...kinda look shoe sizes

This is the best post of this thread, especially the part that I bolded. Many people don't realize that the tire industry doesn't standardize their sizes. Therefore, a 30 may be straight wall on a Toyo and curved on a BF, etc..

I will be using a 305/30/19 as soon as the boat with my new 10.5"'s Hiro's arrives. I already have the tires, just waiting for my wheels. I'm using 245/35/19's up front on 8.5" wheels.
Waiting blows.
