Default Track tire sizes for 997.2 GT3

I plan to run Hoosier R6s on my GT3 for DEs. Does anyone have experience with the tires sizes. The fronts are straight forward: 235/3-19. The stock rear size is 305/30-19. Hoosier doesn't have this size. Do you run 315/30-19 instead or 295/30-19? Any suggestion would be helpful.

Thanks

235/315 is what you want

These fit like 255/315 - which is about perfect

Many people run the 315's in the back.

I just fitted the 235/315 ho hos and they fit really well and actually measure 240/315. Took off my p zero Trofeos which are sized as 305 and measure 315. Go figure.

Are you going to add more neg camber as recommended by Hoosier?
