OEM sizes seem like perfect fits to me. I must be missing something. It would not be the first, or the last, time, though.

285/35/19's are $30-40 CHEAPER than 275/35/19's
Also the stock 275's look stretched...... Which look stupid IMHO. The 285's fit great and you do get slightly better traction and also the RE-11's weigh less than the stockers. I like meaty tires.
People with the 305's on stock wheels pay more for the tire, add unneeded weight to the car, and only gain bragging rights to say they have 305's. Also some people just prefer that look, I don't.
