My 2 cents if I may:
overall diameter of these various tire sizes.

OE: 255/35/19 overall diameter = 26.00 inches

275/30/19 overall diameter = 25.50 inches

275/35/19 overall diameter = 26.50 inches

About a 1/2 inch difference in O.D. either size from factory. Divide that 1/2 by 2 since it's a round tire and you end up with about a 1/4" difference top and bottom from factory spec. Not really enough to make significant difference in the speedo IMO. Probably would be off be 2-4 mph.
once again, i say. isnt the speed picked up via wheel speed sensor. aka not in the driveline. so tire size should not matter.

I wish someone could verify what Doublexl is saying. I will check with mile markers as soon as possible.
search the forums for a thread where they put a 4.08 rear differential in the IS F. factory is a 2.93 rear gear. it was a dealership that did it, im not sure who, i cant remember. they said they drove 2 IS F's side by side, one with the new diff, one without, and the speedo's were exactly the same. so if the diff gear change doesnt make a difference, why would tire size.
