I have the 166's with PS2's go with the 285's on the rear.

My setup listed below.
+1 I have 275/30 Falkens on my rears and although I do love the brand for the price and performance, I should have went at least 285 or 295 for better rim protection. Also different manufactures have different section widths, so a brand like Goodyear is a bit wider then Falken for the same size tire. Once you find a few brands and a size you want to go with, also take the time to check the manufacture's website and get the exact specs.

$1,700 and yes it's expensive but installed with road hazard it's priced pretty well.

I think i'll stick with the 285/30/19 as I like the look and it doesn't rub.

thanks for everyone's input. doesn't sound my ride is going to suffer.
