i'm jealous that i'd never be able to get enough traction with the tires i could fit.

ive ran 275/30/19 on a 19x9.5 +35 rears with no rubbing issues. you can always get your fenders rolled or pulled to fit fatter rubber.

Car is awesome, i don't know if i would have chosen that wheel design but overall your car is nice

i've run 275/30/19 too... remember?

i would have rubbing issues regardless of what i do back there with the rear as it is now with my car and those tires.

plus a 275/30/19 is sooo heavy and unlikely to hook better than a 255/35/18 in my experience

my fenders are rolled too

i'd run 225/30/19 all around so your speedo is accurate. on the W208 i put 225/35 on the front and 255/30 on the rear.

225/30 is going to look like rubber bands!! 225/35 is already really small.

FYI with my tire combination, my speedo is 100% accurate.

Use of a tyre comparison calculator will help you select a tyre size and profile that has the correct outside diameter/revolutions per mile to avoid speedometer error:
