Default 19"s and CS

Ok I tried to search with no official answer, can I get 19"s and lower the tein CS all the way down, and cover all fender well gap? looking to run 245/35/19 and 275/30/19 assuming not running a non-fat setup on the tires i dont like the fat setup. (been looking in the classifieds everyday lately for wheels) but this is a main concerned of mine. if not Im going with 20"s.

tein cs v2 + 19s only will not give you a wheel-well gap of zero.
iirc, chrispy was on air with the cs, so that's a bit different
however, iirc, tein cs (actually, any coilover system) will go 1" lower with rca blocks

Thanks, 275/30 in the rear and I'll have to double check if the fronts are 235/35 or 245/35.

yup with CS's all the way down you'll have zero wheel gap, but you sure won't be tucking. i don't mind since i daily my GS and enjoy the extra comfort.
