Default Need advice for tire sizes. vs-xx !

I just purchased a used set of 19" vs-xx for my is250. specs are 19x9 offset 26 19x10 offset 36. Im planning to go pretty low. What would be the ideal tire sizes ?
Thanks in advance... i've been doing research on multiple threads and im getting a headache lol
Some pictures of the wheels for ****s and giggles:

225/35 front and 245/35 rear. offsets are not super aggressive but you might rub with a wider tire. its a semi stretch. also wat suspension are you running?

I'm running 225/35 and 235/35 in 19x9 +24 x10 +29... but on a TL.

235 is pretty stretched on a 10" so if you can get away with a 245, go for it.

Nice pickup, how much you get them for if you don't mind? How much was the quote to repair?
