Default Tire/wheel question...?

Okay so im planning on getting staggered 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 wheels. The thing is, i don't know **** about tires, so i went to wheel works and the guy suggested 265/35/19, so basically i was wondering if that would the best size for the rim i am looking at? and if not plz show me the light! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

This is a “no-brainer.”

For your wheels (19x8.5 and 19x9.5 wheels), go with these tire sizes:

Front: 245/35-19”
Rear: 275/35-19”

Helping... to help you make a decision.

you can run 225/35/19 255/35/19
235/35/19 265/35/19
245/35/19 275/35/19
maybe go with what is cheaper, which would probably be the 245/275
i know your probably thinking its bigger so wouldnt it be more. but its not. i just bought 275's for my 9.5 rears cuz 265 was 100 more.
