Are you planning on dropping the car also? Or just slapping the rims in? If you are not dropping it then you should be okay. If you are going to lower it, then I would guess that you would need to try a 245/40/r19 tire. That would stretch the tire about 5mm and the shorter side wall would help to prevent rubbing. The only way to know is to try.

I dont plan on lowering the car ,I just want to install the rims.Do you know any trust worthy sites to buy from?

I have gotten all my rims and suspension supplies through Tire Rack. Jim and Roger are great people. Even when I first started they would stop my order before it shipped to ask me if I was sure cause I could fit fatter tires on there. Got another 10mm on the rim because of them! Great People.

yes that would fit, especially if you don't plan on lowering it. it'll stick out 32.5mm out (1.3")

it's far from being aggressive

i would stay away from 19s though... tires would be more expensive (less common) and your speedometer will read incorrectly.
