Tire sizes for 19"

I got a 03 sedan, and I'm getting 19" staggered setup (8.5 front, 9.5 back) soon, but I don't know what tire sizes should I get for it withour rubbing or anything like that.

Also one more thing what kind of tires should I get. I know very little about tires, so every help will be appretiated.

I am a noobie as well, but I'm trying to get more posts so I can get more privilegs, so I tell you what I know.
Not sure about the sedan, but I've been told that the coupe can go as big as 22" rims, but the tires would so thin and expensive in the long run.
There should be a sticky for this basic info in the G35 sedan section of the forum, you can check over there real quick.
As for tires, I guess it would all depend on whether you care about peformance or comfort more, there's going to be trade offs. Good luck.

For a more acurate answer you should include the offsets of your wheels.

You are wrong. You can't run that combo because it would throw off the VFC.

You can run 245/35/19 F and 275/30/19 R.

sorry buddy, but you are wrong. You are throwing off your VDC with that combo. The front is fine, but that rear is off. Who ever sold you that combo did you wrong.

I am running 19 x 8.5 245/35/ and 19 x 10 275/35.

oops didn't see that part. any how the wide of wheel has nothing to do with the side wall of the rubber. 275/30 for a coupe is the wrong tire size, but I retract my previous post cause I don't know about coupes. sorry for the confusion.
