Default dropping and help with tire offset

I about to lower my 07 an 1.25 all around.
the wheels i am ordering are 19*8.5 in the front and 19*9.5 in the rear
the tires that i was going to put on was Front 245/35/19, Rear 275/35/19. does anyone have a suggestion for an offset or maybe a different tire.

Thanks

Please standby for the offset police to arrive. They will guide you on the correct offset because there is only one way to do it.

you are right blasian. there is only one way: the correct way. how can there be more than one correct way (pshaw)... impossiblity!


but yeah, me personally I would upsize the front tire to a 255. I don't like larger than a 20mm width difference front>rear. and offsets I would go for a +15 on the 8.5 and a +15 on the 9.5

The wheel and tire sizes are conservative. You have plenty of offset to play with.
