Default wheel size

will a 19x9.5 et 22 front and 19x10.5 et30 rear fit on the 3is without issues? Im not currently lowered but will eventually do a small drop. Maybe on some Downs.

You need to use the 'search' feature as this topic is discussed routinely on CL.

Based on the offsets you noted, you will need to go with more positive offset (higher #). Don't look to put too much wheel under the car - as you mentioned you will lower - most guy's try to 'cram' all the wheel they can - say it does not rub - and a week or two later are back on the site with rubbing issues.

Do some reading / researching - start with knowing what you have 'stock' and begin planning from there. There are websites that offer 'fitment calculators' to compare wheel/tire set-ups. Use these!

I like this one...

I'm running 20" but my offsets are 38/45 with RSR Downs.
