To Throw in another opinion - Go with the Eibachs. Improves your handling along with the looks. Wheels are mostly just looks. Depending on where you live (road conditions), a lower profile tire on a bigger wheel may be a bad choice. You lose ride comfort & have a higher risk of wheel damage from road impact with the smaller sidewall.

30/35 are fine, a 255/30 stretched is where you can get worried, in all honesty I've been on a 255/35 and a 245/35 both stretched, they feel the same. General an nankang try both feel the same to me. If you want cheap tires and aren't tracking the car I'd say get cheaper tires like nankangs

generals would cost me 390 for a set, almost same thing as nankang. But 265 would be barely stretched right?

Couldn't tell were you lived - if you don't have potholes and don't mind the ride then you should go for it! And yeah, 30 & 35 are pretty low to me unless you are way wide. Most race tires are taller than that too.
