Those are drag radials. If you're wanting this for daily use....should be good for a few weeks.

On a 19" rim, you should not run anyhting larger than a 285. On a 17 inch rim, sure. there is more sidewall for the tire to conform to the rim width. When youre running a low profile tire there is very little give in the sidewall to "squeeze" onto the rim. A 295-45-17 will fit fine on a 9.5" wheel. Thats a big sideqwall. But a 295-30-19 would be pushing it on a 19x9.5" wheel.

Again the sidewall is slightly bigger.
