Default Stretchhhhed?

Hey, i am looking into buying new tires that are stretched.. right now i have 245/35/19 in the front and 275/35/19 in the back.. the tires on there now were $1100 and have only been on there like 3 weeks so i plan on selling them but i need to know what size you guys think would look good but still be practical. the front wheels are 9 inch and the rear are 10 i believe. i was thinking maybe like 225 in the front and 255 in the rear? should i do smaller? or bigger? i need some opinions please.

A nice proper setup with no change in wheel well gap would be the OEM G coupe 19 inch tire sizing.

225/40-19 front
245/40-19 rear

This combo works perfect with VDC/TCS/ABS and is the proper height tire for the car.

You can't buy pre-stretched tires

Why not keep your 245/35 for the rears and buy 225/35 for the fronts? Save you some money.

on my wheels I have a 255/35 on an 11" wheel in the back and it's pretty darn stretched. I have a 225/35 on the 9.5 in the front and its a much more mild stretch. I have some 235/35/19 Hankook ventus v12 tires that i'm trying to clear out if thats what you decide on getting.
