Default Yokohama Advan AD08 question

I've been trying to figure out what tires I want to run when my new wheels get off the boat and I like Yokohama Advan Neova AD08s. I haven't seen anyone using these in 19s probably because the sizing is strange. I have checked tire size calculators and came up with 265/30/19 and 295/30/19 and found a percentage error of 2.1% and 2.5% respectively. Do I take the risk of running these or find a different tire available in 255/35 , 285/35? Any suggestions?
Will be running 19x9.5 +22 and 19x10.5 +25.

Priced out Toyo Proxes T1R in 255, 285 but they are on national back order. (Other places have them in stock but distributor can't get them for tax exemption)

Also tried a search so please don't redirect me to the search tool.

You will not have any problems with those offsets, I am currnently running the AD08 in 275/30/19 and 295/30/19. My speedometer is off by 2 miles per hour at 60. They are great tires.

Do not tell you to look at what other members have done with the same size wheels? OK I wont.

Yes, I have looked at what other members have done with the same size wheels. Keep in mind that all tires are different, even in the same sizes. Generally people run 255 285, but not in Advan Neova because they are not available in that size so thanks for the worthless response.

Not sure about the offsets, but I've got these tires on a set of v.2 track wheels (18x9, 19x10) on the Z. I went with sizes, 265/35-18 front and 295/30-19 rear.

So far I'm very happy with them.

Great tire - actually proven to be the best street tire on the market (in racing)....DOn't really have an answer for you, but I know for sure (I had a set, and will be buying one soon again) that they are a size wider than most tires...255 would be like 265 and so on

Just picked these up 255/18 and 275/19
Ran them at a local auto-x against some pretty good competition.
Tires were very predictable, high level of grip for street tire.
Overall I'm very pleased
