So the PSS don't come in OEM sizes for either car. So how are other people getting these tires? Is everyone just going to wider tires and thus causing their speedo to be off?

most people go slightly wider. stock sizes are bit narrow for the rims anyways.

So stock is 285/35/19. So my options are:

285/40/19
295/30/19
295/35/19.

which is the lesser of the evils if trying to stay as close to stock as possible. More specificly if I have to error on either slightly larger than stock or slightly smaller than stock which way should I go? Also, how does this affect the front? Do I want to go slightly smaller or larger in front to match or leave stock size?
