Ok, here is what I have come up with using these wheels and the ROW M030 suspension kit.

235/35R19 tires for the front.

265/30R19 tires for the rear.

Using no spacers. What do you think?

Those are the very same sizes I have on mine (Dunlop direzza DZ10 series)

The wheels you spotted are killer btw. I'd pick this kit this weekend if I were you.

That is going to hurt bad ($-wise) but believe me you'll have a totally different looking ride!!! And it handles/feels so much better (don't believe those who tells you it won't).

If you end up adding that 10mm spacers on the rear then yes to your question... you'll need +10mm longer lugs bolts

Excellent. Thanks for the reply.

I looked up Dunlop Direzza tires, seems they moved to the DZ102 series now. They are a bit cheaper then the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 I am looking at, but I think I'm willing to pay the extra cost for those tires.

I'm getting a set of Winter tires for my current wheels, so I would like to get the most performance out of the Summer tires, but still at a reasonable cost.
