Just ordered a set of H&R Trak+ 5mm Spacers. Ordered them in black to since my inner wheels are black. Attention to detail. When I return home again I'll add them to the front wheels, netting a +35, and see how they fit/look.

Added the 5mm spacers. Tried adding 2-5mm spacers on one wheel to net a +30 but I didn't want to lower the car on the ground as there wasn't enough threads to secure the lugnuts.

So the specs:
Before: 245/40-19x9.5 +40




After: 245/40-19x9.5 +35




Now I haven't drove the car with the spacers. I did turn the wheels right/left and inspected the inner wheelwell. Saw no issues of tires touching anything. Also even with the Swift springs I don't foresee any fender issues. I do want to run a 255/40 though. The 245's just look stretched on the 9.5" wide wheel. I'm curious if a 9.0 would've avoided the tire stretch. Lastly, need a front camber kit. I can see the front wheels cambered and I hate that. I much rather have a squared alignment. Gonna follow up with SPL on front camber arms.

So what have I learned.... I think the following is a perfect set-up for the rwd sedan;
Front: 255/40-19x9.5 +35 (possibly a 245/40-19x9.0 +35)
Rear: 285/35-19x10.5 +40
