update: So Im in the Tirerack shipping cart and the 295/30/19 is saying this...The following tire you have selected has a higher load rating than the vehicle's Original Equipment (O.E.) tires.
According to this calculator:
Wheel / tire size calculator / comparer - WWW.RIMSNTIRES.COM, you do not want to put a 295 tire on a 9" rim. My rims are 9.5" and is the smallest recommended rim width for a 295 tire. You can go with a 285/30 on a 9" rim. The diameter of the 285/30/19 is 25.8"... so real close to our stock 26".
As for the load rating message, Tirerack actually called me saying the same thing. I told them that it was OK, go ahead and ship them. I haven't had any problems with the higher load rating.
