need some advise with my tires

Hello all, I just brought some second hand rims and tires, but the front tires look like its all gone on one side. I know I have to buy new tires, but I havn't purchase them yet. However, I can't wait to put them on and test fit them. Do you guys think its safe? Or it will be better to swtich the tire the other way around? My car is lower on S tein, so there are some negative camber and the tires will go like this / \

the rims are 19x8.5 and 19x9.5. What kind of tires will best fit those rims? the tires currently on them are 245/35/19 and 275/30/19. And what brand do you guys think is the best?

here are the pictures.

Is this a joke?

Test fitting is one thing, if you drive on that more than around the block you need psych drugs.

That would be very very very dangerous to even test fit the wheels, the tire could pop once you put the car back on the ground. Get some new tires put on and then put the wheels on the car. What offsets are you running? Either way, those tire sizes are the norm, you could get away with a 275/35 in the rear if the offset isnt too low.

Thanks guys for the quick reply, I guess i won't even test fit them than. The offsets are 38mm front and 40mm rear offset. so will 245/35/19 and 275/30/19 be good with my car lower on tein S spring?

Thank you very much.

You'll be fine with those tire sizes with those offsets and drop.
