Both Michelin's and Goodyear's websites show a recommended rim width for a given tire size. Michelin states that the recommended wheel width for a 275/40/19 is 9"-11". Obviously, 9" is at the lower end of the spectrum but it will work fine. Ideally I think 9.5" or 10" is a good width for 275/40/R19. As others have stated, in the past most manufacturers had 17x9 wheels with 275/40 (like the WS6 Trans Am, Camaro SS, 03-04 Cobras, etc.).
Lower profile series tires have a smaller wheel width to play with, for example, 275/30/19 recommend width is 9-10". They can't stretch as far.
