Tires for 19x9.5 et22 Apex arc-8 8?

I've seen mixed reviews or 275/30/19 vs 275/35/19 squared.

Which would be more suitable? Currently lowered on H&r springs

275/30's for sure. 35's will rub.

The 275/35-19 is large in diameter to run up front without tread face to fender liner major contact. It will fit fine in the rear without issues. If you want to stay close to the factory diameter stagger, you could run the 275/30 up front and the 275/35 in the rear.

We recommend going with 275/30-19 tires when running square. When comparing the overall rolling diameter to the stock 245/35-19 tires, you see that the 275/35-19 is a bit too tall (26.58mm vs stock 25.75mm). Therefore, you are at risk for hitting your inner fender and potentially cracking them as well. The 275/30-19 is a much better choice and will work just fine for your setup!

I ended up going with 275/30/19 square

Kumho ecsta ps91

Couldn't be happier, I almost feel like these 19s are way smoother of a ride than the 18s I had on

Likely due to your tires being new and tires in general
