NITTO tire question

I just recently noticed that NITTO is a sponsor of camaroz28.com. is there NITTO represenatives on the forum? if so i have a question for them about the NITTO INVO tires.
I am putting 22x8.5 rims on the front and 22x9.5 on the rear of my new camaro. i was looking at nittos web sight the other day and noticed that the INVO tire is the only performance tire i found that will go to a 22" rim and up. what size tire would you recommend putting on these rims? when looking at the page, i found these sizes, could you please help me in deciding if these will be the right matches: 245/30/22 front(27.83" tall) 275/30/22 rear (28.58" tall). or if i can fit larger width i found these 255/30/22 front (28.03" tall) 285/30/22 rear(28.82" tall). are these the right tire sizes for my application?

What's a rim?

Just kidding...

We don't have an actual rep here, but I can forward your question to them for you. I am sure others can chime in as well.

I don't quite know what that means, but no problem anyway.

Did you get your information you needed? I haven't had a chance to follow up on your questions.

What wheels did you finally go with?

i went with the 360 forged spec 5ive wheels. 22x9 front and 22x10.5 rear.Matte black center , gloss black lip. i wasnt sure what size to go with and they told me they had a chance to look at a camaro and they said it would fit. i was sceptical but they guaranteed it would fit and if not they would make it right. im going with a 265 30/22 front and a 295/25 rear. thier actually planning on using my car with the wheels and pedders suspension in some of thier advertising. they want to use it on the cover of DuPont registry.im pretty excited about this. they said they were going to try to get me free tires from either Nitto or Pirelli for the photo shoot. hope this all goes through ok.
