best tire size for 19's

i was wondering whats the best tire size to put on a set of 19in wheels (19x8 and 19x10) at the moment the car is at stock height but ill prolly end up lowering it about 1.0 in the front and 1.5 in the rear, still not sure though. so what is every one on this forum running on there clk with 19s?

best setup, and probably the only setup, would be to go 235/35/19 up front, and 265/30/19 in back...

its the closest you'll get to matching the OEM setup...

i'm running exactly what danny just posted. 235 front 265 rear. Due to differences in tire companies, some brands DO rub, as others do not. IT all depends....
