Welcome. 275 mm is too small. Go 305 at least.

275-295 is appropriate for a 10" wheel. 305 is out of the recommended size range. It can fit but depends on the offset of your wheel. Many members, myself included, run a 305 tire.

whats the offset on the rim?? like scott said it will fit but be bulged so depending on offset will determine if it will fit in your wheel wheel....

I have 285's on a 10 1/2 rim and its pretty much straight sidewall if it helps any

No, it won't be fine. The fronts are taller than the rears, and that will interrupt the VDC-equipped car. Now, if you were asking if it would fit, well that depends on the wheel size (width) and offset. Without this information, an answer is merely speculating or guessing.

Yes, but depending on offsets/widths the rears will rub. Thats what I am running on a 19x10... I have no VDC issues whatsoever...

Fronts are 26.02" tall, rears are 25.97" tall. Maybe that's close enough with some tires to not fuss things up.

??? How did you determine this again? Don't say you haven't been warned! It's also likely that your front tire is taller in height than the rear - VDC won't be happy about that, and that 305 tire is too big for a 10" wheel.

well, the reason i asked about a 295/30/19 is beacuse im running a 285/35 now and it's really beefy (taller than the front) on a 10" wheel, atleast on mine. so a 295/35 i think will look too big

so im guessing a 295/30 will look about the same height as a 255/35....offsets are +21front +23 rear

edit: i have a base so no vdc for me

i have 305/25/20 on a 10" wheel.

it fits perfect its square with min. - no bulge. it also depends what tires you run since some run smaller than others, with pirelli you should be fine since they run small. i have falkens 452 and its perfect, also i would recommend you go with a 25 series tire instead of 30
