hella, i ain't shane but here's my recommedation...
1. get at least 20-mm spacers all around
2. put your 255/35 to the rears and get 235/35 or 225/35 fronts
3. get at least -2.0 camber all around
4. lower at least 1 inch more
5. rolled flat fronts, rolled and slight pull rears

Brian;

Max your coils, pull -3 camber, stretch a 245/35 onto the rear and and 225/35 on the front. Then 20mm Spacers or pull your fenders and run 25s.

What size tires should I use for 19x9.5+22 / 19x10.5+22 ? My g coupe is lowered to one finger gap all around. I don't want the vdc/ slip lights going crazy either. Actually I don't wanna mess with anything that'll set those off. Thanks

*Camber is uncorrected*

To get the top of the wheel to come super flush with the sheet metal, what size spacer should I use? Also what size tire to get a little more stretch out of it?

^ 15mm front and rear.

Swap your 255/35 to the rear and run a 225/35 on the front.

That'll be hellaflush, you want?

Will a 255 rear give me issues driving (reliability/safety wise)?

You can run a 265 if you're worried. Deeznuts(the sedan just above) is running a 265 on a 10.5 there I believe.

sedan and fuel eco

im runnin 18''s 245 on my sedan and im averaging 20-22 highway n street but if i go up to 20''s on 235's since thats the same overall circumference im thinking only the weight increase of the rims themselves will be a factor.....but how bad!
Also this will be my 1st time runnin 20's ever in my life and i heard 235s are risky i also do bout 30-40 miles freeway a day! any advice would help an upcoming guy! Thanks!

Is 19x10.5 +0 too aggresive for the front of a coupe? It's like -13 on a 9.5... Could I pull it off without using control arms in the front and just rely on being slammed? I was told to use a 235/35 for the front.

^depending on the offsets
you probably need to roll rear fenders just in case

^ coupe or sedan? How wide of wheels?

Lots of people are running SRs, but that's a really vague question.
