HELP please with tires

Yesterday I put on new wheels with 19 * 8,5 and 19*9,5. I still had some tires from my old car in 245/35/19 and 275/30/19.
In front it rubs when I turn.
Should I go for 225 or 235 ????
The ET is 38
I also have an Eibach pro kit installed
Pics will follow

Thanks for the advice man!
It's a smooth ride. off course it's not a bomb to drive with. Great to drive with low rpm. You can easy go 80 km/h in 5th gear and accelarate.
