Recommend me a tire please!

I just blew out my rear tire so im gonna get 2 rears.

I have 19x9.5 HP Evo Rims and the tire i just blew is ....

HANCOOK 265/30Z R19

I wanted to get these...
265/30YR-19 Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 XL

But Tire rack recommended i get a 265/35 19

but it depends wat u have in the front...

I love my BF goodrich KDW's. Excellent traction dry and wet and they have 15K on them and still look new.

unless yours is a base model.

Yes, Kumho's are good.

Tire rack recomends a 35 because they ride smother and will have a less tendency for blow out because the profile handles more shock.
