Need tires for my rims. What tire size do you recommend?

Hello, I have forgestar f14 wheels that are a 19x9 in the front and a 19x10 in the back with both offsets I think are 35
I know I'm gonna go with the hankook tires but I was wondering what size should I go with in the front and rear with no rubbing and I don't want to roll fenders or anything else? And I might later on lower the car but I'm not sure my car has the sport package
Or if u guys recommend a better tire with a rounder sidewall to fit let me know?
Thanks

i just stopped by discount tires because its 5 mins away from me and they told me that the front should be 245/30/19 which i think is wrong because shouldn't it be 245/35/19 and they said the back should be 275/30/19 i just dont want my car to rub?

Thanks

yea thats what i thought you think i would rub if i used a 275 in the rear?


Also, are the hankook tires good for me not to rub or should i go with falken 452 tires because i heard they have a rounder sidewall?

Thanks

Do you have a sedan or coupe? If its a sedan, then you can go with a 275/30 in the back as long as the rear wheel offset is 35. If its a coupe, stick with the 265/30 rear.
