Hankook V12. The rear is fine. I would stick to 235 in front. But the 245 my be ok with slight camber. I rub on bumps over 30 to 40 mph.

It's crazy how the suspension makes such a difference on those 19x9.5 +22 up front. SOOOOO much poke with the stock suspension.

I wanna say 275rears for LCI sedans in terms of tires in general without rolling, I think the coupes can go more aggressive.
But on the wheels you have I personally wouldn't go more than 265, personal preference.
I'm sure others can chime in with better and more solid info.

My pictures (1st in this thread) are of a 275 Michelin tire on a pre-lci coupe with no modifications so it will fit. A 285 Michelin would have required some fender/camber work to fit. That being said, I think a 275 tire may be too much for a 8.5" wheel but you would probably be able to get away with a 265 tire.
