Wow, 275/305 seems like WAY too much tire unless the car has forced induction, all those sizes will do is creat unnecessasary friction, drag, and added weight which will kill acceleration and gas mileage. Not to mention cost of such wide rubber. I'd go 255/35 19 and 275/35 19.

Can I go wider? I want something that can help me put the power down.

There is no need to go with 275 fronts, 255 is probably the widest you will want to go, any wider and you will likely notice the steering get slightly sluggish. How low are you dropped? A 295/30 might be your best bet, and with some fender rolling, you shouldn't have any major issues. KDWs are my favorite all weather tire, very sticky, should do the trick for ya
