Need help tire sizing with summer wheel setup.

I have 19” wheels front - 8.5” ET 17 Rear - 11” ET 25
Can I use the original tires that came off my non competion package m4?
Tires 255/275^

If I buy new I’m wondering if I can run an R compound R888 or trofeo without rubbing if I go as big as 265/305

Stock suspension *^. Any advice helps!!

The rears are way too wide for 275 tires. The offset is also pretty gnarly, not very ideal even for stock suspension. With a R compound 305 your tires will be sticking out of the fenders. Overall I do not recommend.
