Default Hankook Ventus RS-3.. will they fit stock wheels?

I have the stock 05' C6 wheels.

These looks like a solid performance tire. Just wondering if the size is able to fit on stock rims.

THe fronts are still 245/40RZR18 but the rears only come in 305/30ZR 19

Is it too wide and to thin on the side wall?

Also would this be bad for the cornering performance to try and run a tire like this?

305s fit but for less than an 1" wider is it worth it?

Go for the Hankook Ventus V12 Evo... Stock C6 sizes, great price, and WAY better traction / handling than the stock runflats could ever hope to produce.

Well the RS-3 looks like a pretty sweet summer tire.

The Ventus V12 are a great deal and i almost pulled the trigger a few times, but if the RS-3s fit then those look like they might be some pretty stout combo street/HPDE tires for me.

Thats why i was wondering.
