People are also using 235/35-19 and 265/30-19 tires on E9xs without too much problems if you like a little wider look. I'm hesitant to recommend tires with significant rolling diameter differences front-rear even on a RWD car because I don't know how that will mess up the ABS, stability control, etc
If you think about it, if your rolling diameter is close, your sidewalls should look pretty much identical front-rear as well.
