Probably too late but anyway.
I was looking into that myself and I believe it was 235 for front and 265 for the rear with 8.5 and 9.5 rims sizes.
Ultimately, I went with 225 on 8.5 for front and 255 on 9.5 for rear.

Check www.carid.com
Choose your car from the list. Once you pick the rims you like (or in your case just find the same size rims that you have), they offer you a list of tires that will fit and there you can also choose the min - max sizes that will fit on those rims and your car.

I'm running 235 and 275 Nitto Motivo on 8.5/9.5 45mm offset



I'm running 235/35/19 up front, and 275/30/19 out back. These are Nitto Motivo tires. Wheels have 45mm offset front and rear. Stock height. No rub except slight rub on really huge bumps or if trunk is really loadeded full. 98% of my driving has no rubbing. I think these Nittos may run slightly narrower than other tire brands. I would go with 265 out back if I ran Euro branded tires. These Nittos are great for my situation though.

No, no spacers Front or rear. Custom wheel specs/offset below:

{Front: 19x8.5, (ET - 45+)}{Rear: 19x10, (ET - 50+)}

Ditched the stock dampers/H&R springs. Now sitting on full Bilstein B14 coil-over kit, at lowest height setting. Zero rubbing whatsoever.
