Default 9" wide rim, correct tire size?

Hey guys,

Running 19x12 rear 325/30 tire
19x9 front considering 255/35 or is 265/30 a better choice? I want the side profile to be similar to the rear...

I have 275 35 18 Michelin PSS on 18x10 wheels and I think they are perfect. I would likely tend towards the 255 from an appearance perspective but 265 from a performance perspective but would do 265 35 and not 265 30. 265 30 will be a thin tire IMO.

Thanks! Sidewall with the 275 seems a lot larger then the rear. I think 265/35 maybe the right one.

Anyone have 255/35 or 265/35 on their 18/19x9 wheels?

No problem,

Its not, just the angle of the picture, 275 and 325 are at 2.500in wheel lip to the ground. The 265 will be 2.250in from the ground.
