I recommend going a 235/35, 265/30. 275's are a bit too large for a x9 wheel in my opinion.

I ordered 225/35/19 & 265/30/19 F/R respectively. I'll keep the 5mm/10mm spacers on there as well.

All done. Tires hook GREAT! Even with LSD I could spin during a 3rd gear roll-on (to the point where the car would rotate). Now, the tires don't spin at all outside of first gear (which is still only moderate).

Fit is good. With a passenger and stuff in the trunk (spare tires) it rubbed on big bumps in the rear (19X9 with 10mm spacers). I'll roll the fenders tomorrow to eliminate that.

I'm going with pilot SS in the rear, but found that the 275/30/19 are actually cheaper than the 265/30/19s. I know the PSS run big, so I would like recommendation on which size to get. I'd like the keep the 10mm spacers.

Any experience/ideas are appreciated.

I actually posted another question but with the same rim style as you. Thread here (maybe you/someone can help?) http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=717059

Dunno if you've already gotten yours but I just got 235/265 PSS on my 225M style rims tonight. I can take a pic of it tomorrow if you're still not bought.
