Those offsets are perfect! Will be aggressive and look nice.
You can do 265/30/20 Front and 305/25/20 rear
I wouldn't do 35/30 front rear as they're for 19s

I've ran those on another car and they aren't bad. Mine got a little louder as the wear. But overall price was right and they performed fine for the streets.
My personal favorite for any sports cars is Mich. Pilot Super Sports. Usually cost more but I've had good luck with the life of them over many High Performance Summer tires so I feel they pay you back in that way, not too mention its simply one of if not the best handling tire out there with in reason. If your not a maniac behind the wheel or live in colder climate the High Performance All Season version of them gives an excellent ride, handles great, and last a long time.

If you don’t use your SL much don’t get the Hankook they flat spot if not used frequently. They are great tires but mine flat spotted so bad that they had to be replaced. I only drive my SL maybe once a month. I replaced them with Michelin A3 all season tires. So far they haven’t flat spotted.
