like you're on the right track with your measurements. What type of brand, style and colour are we talking about? May I suggest Volks? They're new but they're good Mm perhaps Toyo tires?

theyre the black ruff 281. i love volks but unfortunalty i cant afford em so thats why im lookin into these. the only reason i ask is about the tire size is cuz ther on ebay(ya im not a big fan either) and it says i can "by it now" with 235/35/19 in the front and 265/30/19 for $1600. that seems small i was thinking more like 245/35/19 and 275/35/19 but wasnt sure if theyd fit this wheel or not...

no worries man. Get what you think is best and fits your budget requirements. I am not a tire expert by any means. One of the gurus needs to chime in...

You are providing a lot of details that have nothing to do with tire size: bolt pattern, lip, offset?

Tire width? Same as the 18 inch NISMO wheels. They are the same width.

Aspect ratio? Pick an aspect ratio closet to the OEM tire height.
