Every car is a little different so it's a bit of a gamble...

I'm running 18x9.5 +38 235/40 and I BARELY clear the spring perch, maybe 1-2mm (less than a finger). I did a lot of research before committing to my setup and anticipated more like 5mm based off other's build on here (hence the gamble). In short, I went 235/40 as I knew it'd be a tight fit.

+35 will give you an extra 3mm to work with, so in theory you should be fine running 245/35, but again it's hard to know for sure until you test fit. Buy the wheels you want, test fit, and then order tires once you know what you have to work with.
