19 inch OEM Rays - Rear tire size?

I need to replace my stock rear tires.

I found a real good set of used tires. Yokohama S-Drive.
The seller has 2 sets but I don't know if they will work for my rears.

2 tires=275/40/19

2 tires= 245/45/19

Which one of these sets would be a better bet for my rear rims?

Also does anyone of pics of their tires with those sizes?

Thanks!!

I wouldn't select any of those.

With the rear 19" OEM Ray, I'd run 225/40 in the rear.

That's mine with that size in the rear. 245/45 is going to be pretty beefy. I wouldn't even attempt a 275/40

Damn that sucks.

They are practically brand new for really cheap!

I know the 245/45/19 would work but would probably look a bit funny.

Anybody got a pic with 45 series?

245/40 or 265-275/35 are the only options with 225/40 fronts

It will look funny, cuz its to be pretty fuggin thick.

I'm telling you to go with 225 / 40. The tire is pretty damn thick already with a 40 series sidewall on an 8.5 rim. Now just imagine that with a 245/45/19.
