Did you check to see how far off the sizes are using that tire size calculator in Tire subsection of the forum? The rule of thumb is to stay within 3% of the stock tire diameter. Should be easier to just get a size that's slightly wider

Not when multiple people say they get loose really easy in the rear. I trust customer reviews - not that I don't trust Julius though, but he said other tires are good as well.

PS (better, more money); Hankook V12 (worse, less money). For just street tires (no competitive driving) go with Hankook

The DWs are sold out of 265/30/19s but have 275/30/19 in stock. Those should be fine in the rear right on 9.5in rims?
