You are right those are more flush than mine. Since the wheel is a 10" my 275/30 is stretched a little more and the wheel sits out a little more.
I am going to take some pics tomorrow or this weekend and start a new thread.

I have 245/40/19 at all four corners for now. I guess I will go with a 19 x 9.5 in the rear for the stagger that I would like. The reason I had thoughts of the 20" on the rear is I have seen some other cars that have a setup close to that (most are performance minded sports cars not sedans). Just an idea that I thought a would throw out. I will just keep my 19 x 8.5 fronts with 245/40/19 and go with a 19 x 9.5 in the rewar with a 275/?/19. Any suggestions one offsets and tire size for the 19 x 9.5?
If you don't want to roll your rear fenders go with what Chico has +45.
If you want to roll your fenders you can do up to ~+35-38. Or you can get 10" as low as +40.
If you keep your 245/40's in the front go with a 275/35 in the rear.
245/40 = 26.7"
275/35 = 26.6"
The other option is to go down to 245/35 and 275/30.
245/35 = 25.8"
275/30 = 25.5"
FYI:
Right now mine are 26.8" F and 26.5" R and I don't have any VDC problems so you can go at least 1.2% off and still be ok.

I had 20x10 +43 and now I have 20x10 +45. Neither rub.
My camera battery was dead but I'll get some quick pics ASAP.

I don't have +45 they are +40 now and were +43. I used the same size tire on both 275/30/20 Nitto 555. I now have Falken FK452's on the front and will change to those on the rear as soon as the 555's are gone.
It was raining all weekend here but I will give her a bath and try to take some tonight before the sun goes down.
