Default If you stay at the current height, the tires you select can play a big role in clearance.

I'm at around 24.5-24.7 w/ my 19s on. I do rub a little in the front in certain instances. I may raise it just a hair. I'm not using those wheels, but a 19x8.5 w/ ET 32 and 235/35/19 Falken Azenis ST115 tires. If I had something that runs wider like BFG KDWs, I would have to raise the car or sell the tires which is what I did some years back (YW Sonny. :-) )

Unfortunetly, the physical size of a 235mm width tire can vary greatly from one manufacture to another. SHoot, even in the same brand but different model line.

Default I have RS10's for my summer wheels

Out of the box the offset is perfect on them. No need for spacers and tons of space for brakes. You are running pretty low, so you may need to watch out for rubbing if you hit a dip while turning. I run 25.5 or so all around with 700/800 springs, and I used to buzz the fronts occasionally with my 245/35/19 Falkens (they run skinny for 245s). That said, I have yet to buzz with the 235/35/19 RE050's. Then again, I've long since gotten into the habit of avoiding turns with dips, so who really knows.

If I had to do it all over again I think I'd stick with light 18's because of the crappy roads around here. As far as 19's go, the RS10's are light, strong, and one of the cheaper forged wheels you'll find. And the styling doesn't suck either
