Should I get spacers? Wider tires?
Not sure on what exactly I should do, but i would like for my wheel/tire setup to be a little more aggresive looking without getting new wheels. I have 19x10 rears +18 and 19x9.5 fronts +22 with 275/30-19 rear tires and 245/35-19 front tires. Should I get wider tires or spacers or what? I am going to be concentrating on handling for the most part with my Z if that makes a difference in what I should do. Thanks
here are a few pictures for reference....

275 is the right width for a 10" wheel, although you should be running a 275/35-19 tire not a 275/30. No idea why your rears are 275/30. Those are shorter than your fronts while they should actually be taller than your fronts which can mess with your VDC/TCS.
As for more aggressive looking, well offsets are the primary factor in that respect. Bigger tires will just bulge after you go too wide and compromise lateral handling. You can try spacers to push out your wheels further if that's the look you want.

265/35 or 275/30 front tires would be good, with 275/40 or 285/35 rears. Spend the $ for good tires, not some Nankang or Sumitomohiroshima crap. I can't apologize for being a tire snob.
