Why not get 275/30/19's? They are a taller tire, better match the OEM diameter, give you a little more grip, and are a better match for 10" wide wheels. I see no reason to go with 265's unless your wheel offset prevents fitting 275's.

If I go with the RPF1s I will go with the 275/30/19. The specs of the wheels are 19x10 et25

Brutal...I need the wheels pretty quick. I will have to search for tire info because I've generally had PSS or V12s in the past.

Okay didn't want to lead you into a bad choice based on my screw up. I do like a little bit thicker sidewall look, but did what I needed to so a square set up would work.

And yes my car was stock height.

Stock height non-ZCP?
