Default what size tire for this rim size?

SSR GT3 19x11.5? My firend put 285/30 on it and said there's a gap. I told him I think that's not the correct tire size. I have 285 on a 10 inch rim. I would think he would need at least a 305 or 315.

this is all for a 97 993 turbo

many thanks

I had 325s on my 18X12 fikse's. The 285 is not wide enough.

FWIW Cargraphic reccomend the following sizes for a 18X11.5 rim:
285/30
295/30

SinfulSteve...325s? You da man...too bad Michelin doesn't make the 325s anymore...I had to "settle" for 315s...on an 11" rim this gives a bit of rubberized protection to the metal bits. A 285 tire on an 11.5" rim? I think Cargraphic wants to generate rim repair business...
