I have the build records for my 300G from Gil Cuningham. Listed there is the whitewall width that the car came with. Mine states 2-15/16 to 3”, so I went with 2-3/4” from Diamond Back. Point being the widths shown on the website are not necessarily correct.

Remember that the G actually had the widest whitewall of any letter car - same or even wider than 55/56, as the G whitewall ranged between 3" and 3&3/16" in width. See here: Chrysler 300 Letter Car Tires
So a 3&1/4" ww would be only 1/16" too wide. Personally, I prefer a 3" whitewall on the G. I'm running DiamondBack I tires in P235/75R15 on my G with a 3" ww and I am very pleased with them. Plus they stay as white as fresh fallen snow in Iowa I would consider Kontios in the future if the size and ww is appropriate for whatever car in the fleet needs tires. Whatever you do, avoid American Classic, unless you want whitewalls that look like month old snow that has been pissed on by the neighbor's dog.
