Drop it like its hot (D2-Racing Coilovers)

So last night me and my buddy installed D2-Racing Coilovers and the rear camber kit. Now I need to decide on wheels (Vossen is number one on my list) and some tires, tire size that is. Dont really want to run a 30 series tire in the rear but everyone says to do a 275-30-20 in rear. Why not do a 35. Just would like a little more cushion more so for the ride. Will i even notice difference between the 30-35 as far as how it rides and feels.
The diameter is about 21mm difference which i assume is why running 30 series tire is better.

Thanks! What do you recommend for 20" staggered wheel offset? And tire size? I think I like the VVS082 machined black the best for my car.

I don't mean to be an azz but the over editing makes it so hard to look at the picture, please post a pic without all the effects.

What are you talking about!? In my first/original post it shows a pic of the drop from the side with no editing.
