These tire sizes will work perfectly, won’t rub, and provide great handling, …with your 30 (or even much less) offset wheels:

245/35-19” front
275/35-19” rear

I think you may have VDC (but please correct me if I'm wrong), so do not install tires that are "short" as to overall diameter.

^^ Good observation since the difference is 10mm as to width and also overall tire diameter.

I wonder why Crappyday asks the question.

I would imagine 245 and 275 would work best since that is the most common sizes run by people with staggered 19" wheels.

unless you watch that mashed potatoe 300+ look in the back

I could not resist the “10 mm” post. I think the difference in overall tire height is 2 times 35 percent of 10 mm or 7 mm.

I actually have the same question but a little different and sorry if I stole your thread, i just didnt want to start another one. Question is on the rear, shall I go with 275/40/19 or 275/35/19? how about the front should I go with 245/40/19 or 245/35/19?

^^ Sizes with 19" wheels should be:

Front: 245/35-19"
Rear: 275/35-19"
