I am having quite the time trying to decide on wheels for my 2021 GT (PP), and I already have a set of tires for the rear- 305/35/19 Nitto's...recommended wheel size is 10/11/12, with the 11 being "optimal". Anyone running these on a 10" wide wheel? If so, how well does it fit? It opens up a lot of other options on wheel choices for me if they work well...I want something that optimizes the contact patch and traction as the car now has a Roush SC and I need traction.

305 would be perfect for the 11 in rim imo. I have a 19x11.5 in p6gr rear wheel that I had a set of nitto nt05r mounted to (555r2's hadn't come out yet) and they were to narrow and had the rim flush with the tire, I like the tire to poke some to protect the rim plus imo it looks better. With 345 30 19s on it now the tire sticks out alot cause they "need" a 12 in wide rim to be the ideal fit.

I would run it on at least a 10.5" wheel, preferably an 11" wheel.

You can't go wrong with the SVE lineup. They are flow formed and they save a ton of weight which has the added bonus of having less rotational mass. Especially when the Nitto's are quite a bit more heavy than the OEM tires. They are available in 11" wide wheels for the rear. The NItto 555R2s does handle a 10" wide wheel well as the sidewall is soft for dragstrip use. Its just if you are going to buy a new set of wheels, buy ones that fit the tires properly.

They don’t seem to poke as bad as I thought they would. Wonder what a 335 would look like.
Unfortunately they only have 305 and 345 in the 19's. For 20 in rims they have a 335 or a 325 can't remember. I like how they look however it's a $1000 for a set of 2

When I had NT05R 305/35R19 I ran it on a 19x10. No issues.
