    It will rub, and you will like it.

    But seriously, I think you may rub in the front when you hit bumps since you're using a 10mm spacer. I'm not sure though.
    Ignorance is bliss.

    why dont you use 3mm or 5mm spacers? it will clear the reps nicely...

    It will rub with 10mm spacers.

    I have LM reps with 3mm spacers on the front and 5mm spacers on the back when I had my H&R sport springs, and no rubbing. (Had to unscrew the top wheel well screw in the front wheel wells because that screw was rubbing my front tires.)

    Just keep the 235/35/19 and don't use 10mm spacers.

    so you think i can get by without any spacers with no rubbing?

    or are a 3-5mm spacer needed?

    You need 3mm's to clear the front calipers. The rear will be a little too tucked with the H&R springs drop without spacers so I slapped on 5mm's.

    It's up to you though, right now I don't have spacers in my rear because because my rear drop was rubbing bad. With your H&R/Bilstein combo, you should be fine with 3mm/5mm set-up.
