Default Tire sizes for 19x8.5 wheels on 2016 Lexus IS300 AWD

hey guys. I've been looking at wheels and Im probably going to end up getting Niche Gamma 19x8.5 wheels on my Is300 AWD 2016. Has anyone gone with 235/35/R19 for the front and rears? Does it cause any rubbing issues? I've talked to elementwheels for tire size recommendations and they recommend a 235. I don't know if I should end up getting a 225/35/19 for the front and 235/35/R19. What do you guys think?

235-35 all around is fine. I’m running 19x8.5 with 235s lowered on RSR downs in the front and have had zero issues. The only thing that might cause you problems is the offset

Without knowing the offset it's tough to say what tire would fit the best. I'm going to assume that it's a 19x8.5 +35...this is typically the most common offset for that size rim.
If that is the offset, then you could use 225/35/19, 235/35/19, 245/35/19, or 255/30/19. You would have to consider how good or bad your roads are that you drive on.
