Potenza 240/40-19 tread width=8.8", section width= 9.9"
275/35-19 =10.2" =10.9
Measured from the centerline of the wheel the 275 is 0.7" tread and 0.5" section closer to the fender lip than the 240. The rim is 0.5" closer. Add 1/8" more to each number for the 46 mm offset vs. the stock 49 mm offset.
My guess is that the new 9.5" rim will be 5/8" closer to the fender lip than the OEM 19s.
The tread will be about 0.82" closer.
The sidewall will be 5/8" closer.
You might get a feel for how it may fit by looking at the stock 19s on your G8 and see if there is room to the numbers above.
This is just playing with numbers and just my guess based on the tire and wheel specs so proceed at your own risk.

Make sure you weigh them before mounting them please. I would like to know their actual weight.
