Tire Size Advice

Looking for some advice on tire size

Wheels will be the following:
19 x 9.5 ET22
19 x 10.5 ET25

Tire sizes I'm considering:
275/30
295/30

OR

265/35
285/35

I'm lowered on EMD springs and would like to know which tire size would fill the wheel gap more. I'm looking for a perfectly flush look in terms of ride height, but also don't want to compromise traction with this setup.

10.5et25 with a 285 or 295 is extremely aggressive and, even with significant camber, the tire will poke out of the fender. 10.5et35-46 with 285/295 is where you want to be (10.5et46 M2 CSR 513M forged wheel is a great option).

What about changing the rear to 19x10 et25? A little less aggressive but only 15mm more than stock. Do you think this will still poke out?

It’s still an aggressive setup but is used by forum members. However, it’s too aggressive for me. It should work with a 275, maybe a 285, definitely not a 295. 295 is too wide for a 10” rim. May require a little extra rear negative camber to get a 285 to clear the rear fender depending on the actual tire width.
