Default quick wheel question! please help! :)

hey guys right now my wheel set up is 19x8.5 +38 front running on 225/35/19 and 19x9.5 +45 with 25mm spacers so +20 rear running on 235/35/19 and i was wondering if i can go lower on the tire size like 215/35/19 front with 8.5 rims and run 225/35/19 in the rear with 9.5 rims would it work? anyone running on this set up? pics?

fyi, there is a thread for "will my wheels fit" that has tire information as well. /OT

given the specs of your wheels and the addition of spacers in the rear, don't bother changing tire sizes.

however, to answer your questions...
1. 215/35-19 on 19 x 8.5's and 235/35-19 on 19 x 9.5's will work. i should know.
2. i had the aforementioned tire specs for less than two months before i went with 245/35-19's in the rear.
3. i have a pic floating around somewhere. i'm not going to bother to post it because you can't really tell anyways.
