Default What is the widest tire I

What is the widest tire I can put on a 19X11 with a mini tub. Keep in mind i want to have the side wall flush with the lip. I dont want the tire pulled to the edges nor do i want the tire hanging over the lip. Do you know waht i mean? Any help would be great. Also please advise tires for the from 18X10.

On the rears i prefer 3xx in width if possible. Particular Brands also would help!

Check out Tirerack.com on this, but the tire industry has standards for all tire widths in relation to wheel widths. 275's are standard for a 9.5” wheel, 285's for a 10" wheel and 315 for an 11" wheel. I'd go with the 285's. They’ll mount nice and flush on either the 18x10's or the 19x11's. Also check with Todd@discountire. He can normally be found in this area. Good luck!
