tires experts help me! 19' tires for the 3 rotor

I'm looking for the opinion of the tires experts of the forum,

I have Axis hiros on my car 8.5 on front and 9.5 on rear , rigth now I'm using

235/35/19
265/30/19

and I don't like them, they are two low. I need to buy new tires but
I'm looking for a higher tire to have less spin.

Does any one is using this set up?

245/45/19 front
275/40/19 rear

any one knows if they would fit/work without any rubbing or problem?

thank you for your help.

Manuel

Thank you for your help guys.....................

I don't have plans to lower the car,
I'm looking for higher tires because the streets in Puerto Rico
are not the best one's.................
with the actutal tires when i take a hole, it feels so hard!

so,
the 275/40/19 for the rear would work without rubbing if I don't lower the car?

regards,

Manuel
