stock size is 215/55/17.

245/35/19 will effectively lower him about 1/4"

225/55/17 will raise you 1/5"

245/40/19 will raise you 1/5"


Getting a slightly larger tire is not going to effect you.

Oem coupe 17's come with 225/50 235/50. The 225/40/19 front is the same diameter as the 225/50/17. The 245/40/19
Rear is less than .25"
Taller than the 235/50/17. So the back of the car would raise 1/8", very negligible.

Great idea adding those lifts to your driveway, glad it's working for you. I've seen those kinda curbs in other states too, that crazy....but they have a purpose and obviously work. There are areas here in SoCal where they're needed from the dreaded storm runoff.
