I don't think 265/30 is stock, 265/35 is stock..... But yeah, 285/30 will be just fine.

265 35 18 was factory rear tire for Mk I narrow body 18" option
285 30 18 was factory rear tire for Mk II narrow body 18" option
Either one is fine.

I have 285x30x19 on the rear and it fits fine
I tried to put 305s on the back, but with these wheels, they wouldn't fit

I've been driving with new wheels for about a month or so Ferdinand, but haven't really shot too many pics showing them off. My sons noticed them right away when they saw my Porsche.
