tire sizes can vary depending on the width of your wheels and if you go with a staggered setup. make sure your wheels are the correct offset for your car. that being said, i have 8 inch rims in the front and 9 inch rims in the rear, some have gone wider, but the tire sizes for those rims would be:

front : 225/35/19 or 235/35/19
rear : 255/30/19 or 265/30/19

Without modifying your car 19x8.5 front 19x9.5 rear should be the ideal wheel size and 235/35/19 front 265/30/19 rear should be the ideal tire size. This does vary from type of wheel to type of tire so check with an xpert.

I second that, I had those on my old 19" Brabus and new wheels too.

Bleh, too bad I can't run 265/30/19 anymore. I'm running 19x9.5" in the rear and on 245/30/19. Believe me, my shop TRIED to fit anything wider, but it kept on rubbing against the fender and the gas canister. Oh well, it's safer this way.

Have they rolled your fenders?

yeah, they rolled to the max. The rear's are rolled a lot but it turns out that it wasnt the fender that was rubbing but the rear bumper underneath the fender.

You need spacers to get the proper offset.
