I was planning to go with the same set up like your but i want a little bit more flush, wasnt sure if 245/40/19 with 19x9.5 is a bit stretched
I don't think it's a safe assumption.
That size on a +35 wheel could come in contact with the fender with a good-sized bump while turning.

If you go back 1 page, EPotter posted what the 245/40r19 looks like on their sweet BBS 9.5 wheels. It looks a little stretched IMO, but is within most tire manufacturer's recommended wheels sizes.
I don't think you will rub on stock suspension. Front might poke out a little unless you're using performance rotors (they're thinner).

Correct…. It’s the same amount of stretch as the stock 19’s…. Since I went 245/40 and not 245/35…. It’s a “single stage stretch”… and offers 4mm more side wall than the stock 19’s
I’m lowered 1.5 inches and have an offset of [email protected].
I’ve tried my hardest to see if it would rub during hard cornering, and it doesn’t so it’s a safe setup and the camber in front is -.9 and rear is -1.8

These will 100% fit. I'm on this exact wheel size with 265/35's and no issues. I put spacers on the rear to make them sit flush with the fender, but they fit just fine without them. While your 245/40's will be a tad taller than mine it should not make much of a difference, especially since they are narrower.

This is 245/40 profile with a 19x9.5....I have a +22 offset which is more aggressive...no issues, but my car is lowered...if it's lowered you can go more aggressive with the offset....if you plan to stay stock ride height....then +35 if fine...if not I'd rather get the correct offset than use spacers.....
Would I be able to get away with 265/40zr19 on this same 19x9.5 wheel with stock ride height?

With 27.3" tire diameter, you're taking a gamble. It *could* just clear the upright, if it's not really 27.3" but a tad less. But it could also rub.

Good to know 18” clear!
For the price, these are probably still my favorite wheels.
