Default Wheels & Tire Options

Tried searching but didnt find a ton around this question. I am currently running 19's on my 996TT however the rear size tire is no longer made by any manufacturer (305/25/19). Tried looking for other size size options but because my car is slightly lowered it's a no go as anything taller would rub and narrower would have issues with my rim width. Im wondering what others are running in terms of wheel sizes/offset and tire sizes as I am fairly certain Im going to go the route of new wheels so I don't have this issue going forward. Any insight this group can provide would be greatly appreciated.

You mean 315/25/19. Continental makes a set still that you can order from Europe, I have them.

Here they are on ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/23427123216...3ABFBMmNvs2dhf

What width are your rear wheels? Most are 11", and a 295/30/19 fits just fine.
