If you must go with a 19", then the only tire currently being made with reference to your list is the 315/25/19. The only other option in 19 close is the 305/30/19 and a 305/25/19. Both work on a 12" wheel.
I could not find any manufacturer that makes a 335/?/19 or a 315/35/19.

Sticking with 18's may gives you better sizing/ performance options.

I would think traction will be horrible with the 315/25 series sidewall, but that's the way to go as far as size!
