265/30-19 is the way to go up front, which is what we use with our 19x9.5" ET28 wheels. Fits perfectly and plenty of room to spare between the tire and fender liner.

Thank you Dylan.
Please help me understand why the same profile tyres will have a different height.... both original and attempted replacement have a 35 profile.

I did not see where it was touching and could only feel it during steering lock. I reduced the tyre pressure to 30 PSI to see if it would help but this did not work. Because it only occured during a full turn, I interpreted this as a width issue....
