I will tell you this a 245 on a 9" wheel will look identical to a stock 19" profile but just a few mm taller in sidewall.

There is sooo much more that goes into picking a tire for me but that's because I know what to look for like tirewall stiffness and multiple compound tread. Actual spec'd size of tire and more...

So all in all you are fine with your choice but if you find yourself digging for that last .1 around the track every bit helps.
Thanks!
