Thay can be had for around 60$ online just search....
You can experiment with ANY size you want on ANY car you want whenevet you any!! Never ask about fitment again! EVER! Best money I've ever spent on tires that weren't tires! Especially if you're getting an expensive set of wheels n tires...

Do you guys think it's posible to fit 275/30/19 on a 19"+25 on the back of my car or do you think I should run something smaller? car is not slammed in the back.

If your car is not very low, you could fit up to 19x10+25 w/ 275

Looking to pick up a set of "front runners" for a drag wheel setup, the only size other than 15's that match my rear are 17 (for the front) which is fine, but they are only 7 inches wide, so what offset would be good on a 17x7 front and be as aggressive as possible with no rub or having to roll?

You'll need wheels with an offset that is in the single digits

This is the setup I have. I could have gone with 245, and 275, but I kept it conservative. The same for lowering, I could go lower, but I can barely get out of my driveway now.

Tein Flex
Work, VS-XX.
Front, 18 x 8.5/R18, +40, R disk, big brake disk, tire 235/40
Rear, 18 x 9.5/R18, +39, O disk, deep lip disk, tire 265/35
No fender rolling

ok im stupid whats offset?

Offset: Distance from the mounting pad to the centerline of the wheel, in millimeters. Positive means that the mounting pad is outboard from center, and there's more wheel behind the face, negative is inboard with more wheel outside the face.
Mounting pad: The back of the area on the face of the rim that's machined for the wheel studs to pass through.
Centerline: Imaginary line in the center of the rim, directly between the beads that seal the tire against the wheel.

Centerline. Outboard. Mounting pad. Bead

Im even more confused now.

This. Front could use some spacer, but that's golden for most guys that don't drop it balls low, but will still roll a fender. What suspension setup are you on, and what aero kit is that? Looks awesome.
