Thanks for the kind words about the car.... I updated my signature to reflect all the current mods. I also have to say the H&R springs and the Koni work great...
The tints are actually two layers of 15% tint. I was afraid 5% would be too dark and went with 15% but then I did not like the way it looked with one layer of 15%. The tint guy said it's about equal to about 7% - 5% or so. Works fine if I had to do over I would just go 5%.

Your tires must rub like crazy at full lock with those 235s.

Not at all... Actually, I wish I would have gone wider that 235 but selection was limited and I listened to the TireRack guy who said same thing as you. Next time I need tires i am going to go with 245/35-18 all around minimum.

Such diameter just looks ridiculous... to keep the same diametre is should be 225/35/19 or 255/30/19

Hey there,
I actually run 245/35/19's all the way around. Don't have any problems with rubbing unless im at full lock and even then its not an issue. I would rather have the slightly larger sidewall as the combination of a lowered suspension, small sidewall and an already stiff ride equals loose teeth!
fwiw:
225/35/19 - 78.75mm sidewall overall tire size - 25.2"
245/35/19 - 85.75mm sidewall overall tire size - 25.75"
235/40/18 - 94.00mm sidewall overall tire size - 25.4"
edit: Here is a side shot of the tires. It's still pretty thin.
