Would love to know this and which tire brand/model. It looks good!I have M610s 19x8.5 +35 / 19x9.5 +40 and am researching tires. I drive often with passengers, and will have a mild drop w/ RSR Half-Downs planned. I want to make sure I dont have any tire rub.
Right now I see these options:
FR: 235/35/19
RR: 255/30/19 OR 265/30/19
I'd rather go with 265 so I have more sidewall and more footprint, but have seen mixed results regarding 265/30/19 at both Half and regular drops. So confused!!!!
My car is also an AWD which, I believe, means that my drop height is closer to that of a Half-Down drop on a RWD (my drop is still a little lower).
I do carry weight in the back of my car such as heavy luggage, golf clubs, etc and have never rubbed on my current setup.
I also drive in downtown Chicago where the roads aren't that smooth.
RSR did a great job with their springs, my only advice is just to watch out for bad parts of the road and you'll be fine...

Thank you!
We have the exact same wheel specs so hopefully this helps....I'm lowered on RSR Downs, but I don't carry too many passengers, if ever.

Took 6 weeks to build and price was good for custom painted rotory forged wheels. I love em and lots of compliments on the color combo.

Looks good! Would love to see the pic after adding the Half Downs. I am building an almost identical set-up, but have +40 for the rear. TBH, I'm surprised at how "low" it already looks w/o the Half Downs! The rear gap isn't that bad in the pics.

This is the exact wheels I want!!! How does it look in person? Where did you purchase it? Would you mind show a picture from the side view?

BTW, if you get gloss black, you should check out these TPMS stem/sleeve covers. They're super easy to install and I think the wheels look a lot better with the matching black instead of the stock allow TPMS sleeve. Here's the link where I purchased from: http://www.ravspec.com/shop/tpms-sleeve-and-cap-cover.

Good stuff. I've had my Half Downs in my garage since December! But I'm planning on doing the install myself this week. I test fitted my 19x9.5 +40s and the wheel lip seemed to line up with the fender...so I am a bit concerned w/ the width of my tires. I have +2 to your offset, so I should be tucked in 2mm more than you, but I'm not seeing that. Hopefully it works out for me. 
Thanks for the compliment man. I've had the half downs at my house for over a month! Haha I'm planning to get to it soon since I'll have more free time on my hands next month. I agree with you regarding the rear - there's definitely a gap but it looks a lot better than the stock wheel gap from certain angles. I think the +38 offset with the 265 tire helps because they sit just inside the wheel well instead of way inside like the stock wheels. I'll post pics after I install the half downs.

I got them from Need 4 Speed Motorsports. I'm really happy with the way the wheels look in person. I was debating getting satin black instead of gloss black, but I'm glad I didn't go that route. I wanted something that pops a little bit but isn't over the top. I'll post more pictures from the side view, but probably won't have time until Monday. I'm in CA and I'm leaving the office right now to start my weekend!
