295/30/19s will fit on a 19 x 10 inch wheel with the height right at 26"

the 285 and 295 is not going to be a huge difference . it is not going to spin as much with the 295 though you may need to do the BFH mod . i got 285/35/18s at the moment and could not be happier . they fit well and do not rub on the inside which as you go up in size will become a concern unless the use of a spacer .
just make sure to get some quality rubber .

thanks snake charmer, but I also see people running 275/30/19 as well? What is the difference with these over the 285's? I do all city/highway driving, not really racing but just mess around most of the time, but just chill driving since my car is so loud lol but please info is appreciated
