I have Style 166 rims with 275/30R19 with Falken 451 tires and these tires don't cover the rim. At the moment I have 15mm spacers installed and no rubbing issues. I definately want to have some other tires to fix the width problem. I have read in the forums that the width depends on the manufacturer. For example nick60gre have 265/30/R19 on the same size of rims and it looks just fine. So I have 3 options
1) pick some other manufacturer on stay on 275/30R19
2) take 285/30R19 and maybe put smaller spacers if needed
3) could I go for 275/35R19 with Bridgestone on Dunlops, haven't noticed that anyone have this size here.
I also don't want to mess up my DSC. The fronts look ok with 245/35R19.
Looking forward to your opinions?
Here's also the picture of my current setup:

WAW! The 275's really do look small on that rim. But nice rims. Your right size would be 285x30x19. 275x35x19 wouldnt help you width issue and would negatively affect your speedometer reading and DSC
