I'm running similar specs and run 225/35/19 all the way around. I'm lowered on megans and tucking 1/2" tire...dropped pretty low I guess.

falken 452 and Dunlop direzzas are decent stretch tires.

I did 235/35 on my 9.5 and it didn't stretch. 225 will most definitely stretch. 245/35 did however stretch on my 10.5

because he's running semi aggressively sized wheels and his car is lowered i'd imagine. he's got to be able to fit the wheels flush to the fender with his lowered suspension.

OP, here is mine...just so you get an idea on fitment.

19x9 +25 FRONT
19x9.5 +25 REAR
225/35/19 falken 452's

245/35/19" up front

255 or 265/30/19" on the rear. No stretching (ghetto IMO)

My opinion. Proper. You asked. I did research on the same size wheels, but the offset I was going to use is +35 front and +40 rear.
