Default Wheel and Tire Size Question

Hi - I would like to purchase the 19" Sport Classic wheels off Suncoast. I know I have seen them fitted to a 991 before, but I'm wondering if any guru's would be able to assist on best tires to fit to them. I have a 991.1 Carrera S.

Wheel size is:
Front: 8.5" x 19"
Rear: 11.5" x 19"

Carrera or Carrera S: Front 55mm, Rear 67 mm
Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, or Turbo: Front 55mm, rear 50mm

I assume 235/35/19 and 305/30/19 would fit fine. Since I'm going down from 20" (carrera classic) to 19" should I purchase larger tire height sizing like 235/40/19 and 305/35/19? Also, since the 991 appears larger than the 997 should I buy the narrow body or wide body? Not sure if the narrow body will look too tucked on the 991, but don't want to end up buying wide and it doesn't fit right. Appreciate any assistance.

I have these tire sizes on my 991.1 with the standard 19” wheels:

Fronts: 235/40ZR19 92Y
Rears: 295/35ZR19 100Y

Hope this helps!
