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?
My current setup is 255/295. I'll be going 265/295 for my next setup. With the 295/35 in the rear, my Speedo currently reads +2mph FASTER than I'm actually going, confirmed by radar detector GPS.

I forgot about AD08's, I need to look into those. My only with them is wet traction... Spohn?

Same here, I might look at getting some AD08's as well vs RE-11's.

That makes no sense, I think you mean you have a 295/30/19. A 295/35/19 is considerably larger diameter than the stock tire and you'll be reading quite a bit slower than your actually going.

Yes, that was a typo. I was trying to remember off the top of my head, and I guessed wrong

Rears are 295/30's. But they do read on the speedo I'm going faster than I actually am.
