This does raise the question I have to the OP whereas they say SC3R was never gunna happen using a 10.5 wheel which brings the section width to 308mm. Yet apex wheels has no problem fitting while having NT01s 305 35 18s that happen to also be 308mm. I would be curious where the interference is.
I plan to run 10.5x19 all four corners and would like to know why not all 305 30 19 tyre fit. Apex can do it with a 0.2" taller setup, so why cant 19s

I was also wondering why Apex listed 305's on the 18's only. Maybe they are a little shorter so they're stretched on the wheel more? Maybe the NT01 "runs narrow". Is the section width reliable considering people say that SC3R "run wide"? Does that mean the true section width is greater?
I went through all of this myself and almost pulled the trigger on the 10.5 X 19 wheels, but then just decided to stay on the OEM wheels, because you're really just getting a little extra width up front. Plus even if you do rotate your rear wheels to the front, you still may only get about 20-25 heat cycles out of them = about 4-5 track days. This can also be done with the OEM setup by rotating the wheels side to side.
