Question for any tire tech guy

The 305/30's are a little off - would 315/30 be too wide to fit the Sport wheel?

What do you mean by a little off? If you are talking about circumference, my Z with the set up I described reads about one mph off (low) on the speedo when comparing it to my GPS, which I am very confident is almost right on the money. I personally think that a 315 would be too wide for the stock 10" wheel. I think at the 305 looks good, but I always thought that the 275 on the 10" looked too small, meaning that the sidwalls angled in too much. The 305 is just about perfect.

Here's a picture of the rear stock wheel with a 305/30 Hankook tire.

Too much. It will look too streched out.
