275/35ZR19 (100Y) XL 240 AA A 1764 lbs. 50 psi 10/32" 30 lbs. 9-11" 9.5" 10.9" 9.1" 26.6"
But 275/35/19 is the exact OD as the stock tire. The numbers above are a copy and paste from the tire specifications @ TireRack for the SP Sport Maxx Tire. The bolded numbers are the size, and the diameter. The other nos. have to do with load range @ 50PSI, tread depth, tire weight, rim width range, and recommended rim width.

I'm going with 245/35/19 and 275/35/19. The shop said most people go with the 275/30/19 because they like the look of the rear being lower.
I'm not into the speed boat effect so I went with the wheels that according to the sales guy, are "supposed" to be used.
But other shops says that the 275/30/19 will "LOOK" as tall as the 245/35/19 because the 275 are wider, which makes the sidewall look the same height.
Which is why most people go to the 30 route.
I was told that the 275/35/19 would not rub on my stock sports suspension, so I went with that.
Falkens 452 for the MTFW. Decently priced, low road noise, and has some of the best rating at tires.com.

But really, we are arguing semantics here, 275-285/35/19 are both the correct sizes to use, and are less than 1% difference from stock, the change in diameter due to tire wear is probably more signicant than this.
