A 30 series tire is just too small on a S197. The car is too heavy.

Well it depends on what your section width is too.

I had 305/30r19s on mine, they rode fine, but they looked terrible. Too thin. These cars need some tire in the fender well. I switched to a 285/35 and they're way better.

What about a 255/40/20 and 285/35/20 tires? Both are about 28" tall and give back a little more protection while filling up the fenders better.

255/40 sidewall is taller than a 285/35. It is looks extremely awkward to me. I previously had a setup similar to this for a short time period when I switched fron 275 to 295
