I really want a 325...sucks that mine don't fit, and 315/30 19s are really hard to find.
Trust me, I know, I have only owned a few sets of each, lol

305s on 10" bulges a bit, but 305 on 10.5" is pretty flat, but still meaty enough to protect the wheel

I know what you mean but even though my Goodyears won't seat, the half that does seat looks really good, also, I can find 325/30/19s much much cheaper as it seems than 305 or 315s...I found a set of brand new 325s for $368 shipped...can't beat that. If Even if I don't get an answer confirming fitment I think I'll still risk it and try.

I agree. I had 305 on sport rims also and didn't notice any bulge.

Here's a pic, from Christian370z's build thread, of 305 RE-11s on sport rims

I only know about a slight bulge with RS3s. I haven't really seen it in person.

My 305 RS3s on the Nismo wheels without a spacer on stock ride height looks amazing
