(1) From the looks of it, the rear will be pretty sunk in. What size spacer should i run?
(2) Also can someone recommend an AWD tire setup? Car will be dropped on tein s techs, and i would like to avoid rolling fenders. However i also need some protection against the NYC potholes.
Ideal in terms of the AWD system would be 235/35 front and 275/30 rear. But it's still less than a 1% difference, so you should be fine with 265s in the back if you want the extra tire-to-fender clearance.

Thanks!
I'd recommend a 25mm spacer in the rear for a flush fit. For tires I think you'd be safe with 225/35 and 265/30.
Here's a shot of 19x9 +25 with 225/40 and 19x10 +35 with 255/35 (not my car)
That should be ok, according to other members. They say that as long as the difference between the front and rear wheel diameter is less than 3%, the AWD system can compensate.
