I'm getting ready to order up a set of wheels and tires and I'm able to get the wheels I want but tires are a little limited right now. I want to use a 19x11 in the rear and I was hoping to do a 305/35-19 but nothing is in stock. Will a 295/35-19 look alright on an 11" wheel or will it be too stretched?

Thanks
Greg

295/35's (Falken RT660's) on 19x11's square. Slight, slight stretch. I'll take a slight stretch over a hillbilly bulge, any day of the week. The stretch will provide more steering response.

Depends on the tire manufacturer but 295/305/315 all look good on 11” from personal experience.
What exact tires are you looking at?

I went with an apex wheel 19x10 front and 19x11 rear. I went with Michelin pilot sport 4s in the 295/35-19 rear and I think a 275/35-19 front. They haven't come yet though.

What's the point of the wide wheels if you're using such narrow tires?
I've already spoke about the 295s on an 11" wheel, but 275s on a 10" wheel?

You must not have understood the part about not being able to buy the size tires I intend to use because they are out of stock right now. I need something to get the car rolling for now.

Then put those 295s on the 10s

I don't have any good wide street options for the rears right now. I was trying to do a 285 in the front and a 315 in the rear.
