I may go with some springs to get a drop, but not sure quite yet.
In all honesty, you will want to get a drop with that kind of size/offset. I tried them on the car before putting the suspension, it looked goofy, did not even took it out of the garage...

If you compare 245/35 to 225/40... well you get exactly +5mm on each side of the tire. Should not have any problem, but you will be very close to your front fenders. Pretty sure 255 would fit in the back but not in the front.
