i might do a 275 35 19....but im not going to a 30 series...bfg dosent make 30 series in a 19 ...only a 265 and im not going that narrow...
what is so bad about being a little taller than stock?.....what is that going to affect on the rear...?
i had 295 35 18 on my old sc300....and that diameter was 26.1
the diameter on a 275 35 19 is 26.5
is that . 4 gonna make any differance?
i never had any issues on the old car

ok, just looked up the 275/30-19 on BFG's site, and sure enough, it's missing. However, I just got my 2007 BFG tire data book, and it's listed, as well as being listed in our computer, and on Tirerack.com... weird enough... Anyways, for those that want the 275/30-19's, they are listed as:
275/30ZR19/XL NT (new tread); 96Y MSPN: 97983, stock number: 936-340, rim width 9.0-10.0", section width: 11.0 on 9.5" wheel, overall diameter: 25.6", tread depth: 10/32, revs / mile @ 45 mph: 814, max load: 1565 @ 50 psi, 300 AA A
edit: after looking, they are missing a bunch of sizes off their chart online... weird...

I want the RPM r505. I dunno what offset they offer or what size diameter to get.
Im running stock suspension. I have 93 sc400. Im planning to just get these and directly bolt them on without fender modifications.
So basically, im planning on the 18". But i dunno what offset and diameter to get, and what tire size to get for just direct bolt on. without modifications.
Anyone know where i can get these online for cheap? please help me. Im in desperate need of rims. I have the stock chrome 10 spoke lexus rims.
PM me.

I've literally set the two side by side, and a 315 BFG Drag is a full inch wider (tread) than the Nitto is...
For a little proof, here's a pic of the Nitto 315 on an 8" wide wheel... the BFG wouldn't even think of fitting on that narrow of a wheel:
here's from the rear:
compared to a BFG Drag Radial:
