Lots of people are running 19x8.5 MM Evo 5's with 245 series tires and have no problems even with lowering springs. You should be ok with a 235. As for springs, depends on what you want.... performance, looks, or close to stock ride?

I have Eibachs... IMO, they drop more than the 1.3" front and 1" rear that is stated and they perform well. They are stiffer than the other though.

That is a shot of it from the side with 19x8.5" and lowered.

Also go to my homepage if you want to see the drop difference from stock and maxspeed springs

Yes it is worth it. I would like infact to go with a 255 if i could get one...But the 245 is worth it...I run a yok avs sport and believe me the traction the side to side stability the turn in all that is great...Ive drive many cars with 235 and trust me it's worth a little more.
