Default Tire Size Help

So I just ordered some wheels and was looking to get some recommendations on some tire sizes.

I purchased 19x8.5 with a 36mm offset for the front and 19x9.5 with a 37mm offset for the rear.

I am currently not dropped on anything, but will probably get some springs, leaning towards Eibach's 350 springs.

What tire sizes do you guys think I should go with? I don't want rubber bands, I want something to help protect my wheels..

I was looking at 245/35/19 for the fronts and 275/35/19 for the rears. What do you guys think?

Is 245/40 up front overkill?
