I would go with 245/35/19 and 275/35/19.

285/35/19 would be more ideal for 10.5" or 11.0" rear.

A size 275 tire in the back will allow you to lower your car without rubbing your fender if you wanted to. If you get 285 you'd definitely need to roll your fender.

I have 275/35/19 in the rear with a 10.5" rear wheel and it looks a bit stretched but when lowered it would look very nice.

If you want more sidewall go with 285.

**EDIT** In your case, you should have plenty of sidewall without the stretched look since you have .5" smaller than me front and back.

Nah man

def do a 245/40/19 in the front peoples go with thay 245/35 because thats what everyone says...the 245/40/19 fits nice with NO RUB on a 8.5 inch wheel

if you go with that 245/35 all you have is more wheel well showing and less protection ....you know NYC streets will have their way with you...so the more rubber you can get on the tire the better especially in the front

Dont listen to those that say the 245/40 /19 will rub on a 8.5 inch wheel...cause it WONT - HOW do I know?- - CAUSE IO HAVE THEM ON MY G FOR 3 YEARS NOW...

and DEF do the 275/35 like Dosa said...

henry you are reading too deep into it man...it aint like you'll be going 75 and the thing will be reading 60MPH

just buy the 245/40 for the front and the 275/35 for the rear and call it a day
lol
