if you want a bigger stretch maybe 215/40 19 fronts and 225/40 19 in the back.

and i'd use 30mm front and 35 rear for spacers.

Did you guys install long bolts and use longer open end nuts?
I have 15mm on my front and rear. I am always afraid that the nuts would fall off.

Wait you are running 15mm spacers without extended stud or hubcentric with built in studs???? If so I would suggest you don't drive again until you correct that, just search and you can find threads where people's wheels literally fell off while driving due to running spacers without proper studs, and that was with spacers much smaller than 15mm.

OP you can run 35mm R and 30mm F with stock tire sizes and still look somewhat aggressive.

I did for months
