Pilot Sport 4S 245/35 19 can fit a 9.5" wide tire and maintain exact OEM ride height/diameter.
I probably can fit, but I think a 245/35 would look too stretched on a 9.5" wide wheel imo. Might as well go up to a 255/35. Speedo would only be off by a bit under 1%.

Yeah, don’t know what you’d go through the trouble of getting a 9.5” width wheel and not take advantage of 265 section tires.

265's fit on the FK8 with 19"x8.5" wheels and you can squeeze a t275 on htem if you can find someone do do it. If I could run those 9.5" in SCCA stock class, I would at least go with 275's.

I like them a lot. Definitely going to try to get my hands on a set. Would just run the stock FL5 tires assuming they wouldn't rub
