Default Tire recommendations.. Please help!!

Hey guys just purchased a set of wheels and I'm trying to figure out what size tire to go with. The vehicle is a stock height (for now) 2002 sc430 . No mods at all to the suspension. These are the wheels I'm going with.. <br >
The plan is to lower the car on coilovers , not slam it . Just enough to to get rid of the wheel gap . What do you think? Any other suspension mods I should add ? I appreciate the advice guys...

You live in Florida; I'll save you a massive headache, ExtremeContact DW. Best price per performance. If you drive semi-aggressive and not to the extreme, it almost feels like Michelin PSS but with a bit softer sidewalls -- gives you more comfort.

Cheapest tires to put on would probably Hankook V12s.
The rest are garbage. Loud, hard, and no grip at it's limits.

Thanks for the reply , I'm actually trying to figure out as far as height and width. The shop recommended 235/30/20 front and 255/30/20 rear. I plan on lowering the car on coilovers. So would that setup work.?
