Default Picked up a set of Volk's on friday (BWW)

Got a hell of a deal I think. Traded my stock 17's + $1000 for a set of Volk Racing GT-C's with S0-3 tires. Only gripe is the guy was running the wrong tire size in the rear, he has 275/30/19 on it.

Finalstageauto.com has some pretty good prices on Volk wheel and tire packages but all of them come with 275/30's in the rear. If its the wrong tire size, then why haven't they switched to 35's by now?

I think that there has been a huge manufacturer shortage of 275/35/19s.

That is true. Also if you open up a Option Magazine. The shops in Japan seems to be all running the 275x30x19's in the rear. I was looking thru a few wheel advertisement from different vendors. They are all selling the 275x30 set up.
