Please show me some pictures of 245-35-19 or 255-35-19 Because I have 235 and they are pretty slim and look ugly. With the wider tires I think there will be a more agrresive look. So Please post some pictures up!!

The difference will be minimal. I went with the 245's just to make my sidewall a little taller. The 255's may rub if you have a low offset or a drop.
Below is a 235 Contisport contact 2 (235) vs a Kumho Ecsta SPT (245):

Those are two different rolling diameters that might screw up the quattro drivetrain. It's dumb to put 1cm different widths as you won't notice a visual difference and you won't be able to rotate you tires.

So 245s all around it is then. If I get the 245s then I might get the H&R sport lowering springs because they are pretty cheap and give you a 2 inch drop.

just remember, if you run lowering springs on stock shocks, you will drive them to pieces. The damping of the stock shocks are not made to handle the more increased load associated with lowering springs. Def go for a spring/shock setup, such as the Koni FSD
