A 265/35 18 is a better match for your 305/30 19's. I ran that combo on my coupe for quite a while with no issues. Multiply the rear diameter X .955 to get the proper front diameter. Something like a 235/45 18 would play nice with your 305/35 19's for a drag strip setup.

I run NT05R's on my car all the time. If MT made a 345/19 tire I would run it but I have no issues with my nittos.

When I drive they are on the car. They don't come off and I have driven them in all conditions.

I haven't found one yet. I'm thinking about getting a set or repo cup wheels in 19" for the rear and having them repainted to match the gray w/ machined face cups I ahve now.
