I wouldn't recommend that size, I'd go with the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup in the 305/30-19 or the Pirelli Pzero Corsa in that same size.

You might ping Tom@champion to see what they were running on the 9 second GIAC/Champion Turbo S. Those tires were hooking quite well on the strip.

The 305/35-19 is an inch taller than the OEM overall diameter.
