Tire sizing question

Currently I have tire size of 275/45/19.
When its time to replace, what other sizes can I put on the rims, which would fit and would not change the speedo/odor calibration?
I am talking about confirmed sizes, and intention on slightly increasing width.
Examples of make/model for such would be greatly appreciated too.

Thanks

Doing more research. Here are some other sizes that tires are sold in, but still have questions if anyone has actually put one of these sizes on to verify fit (clearance from all parts in the wheel like rotors, sensors, wheel well, turn clearance, will it fit onto the rim, etc).
Thanks.


Stock: 275/45-19 - circumference 90.3in - revs/mi = 702
Option: 285/40-19 - circumference 87.9in - revs/mi = 721 - DIFF: -2.7% - Example Tires
Option: 295/35-19 - circumference 85.2in - revs/mi = 743 - DIFF: -5.6% - Example Tires
Option: 315/40-19 - circumference 90.3in - revs/mi = 697 - DIFF: +0.6% - Example Tires


Mind you, the above option tires are produced for sale, but I do not know whether or not they will fit into the 05-06 CTT. Hope someone on here can chime in to comment.
Price wise, looks like going stock or maybe 285/40-19 would be comparable. Everything else is much more expensive due to sizing.
Also, from dimensions, the 285/40-19 seems to be very close visually to stock. Slightly smaller so looks like it would make speedo slower, and mileage increase faster by 2.7%.

Hope someone has input here. Thank you for your help in advance.

so has anyone on here run 285/40 19 inch tires on the CTT? Any problems with fit (rubbing, mount on rims, etc)?
Thanks.
