I would be worried about the tyre delaminating in that second pic too.

Any shiny spots on the strut to show that they are rubbing? If not, happy days.
Although you should be running 235/35/19. That will give u a touch more clearance.

yep, as already stated u should only run 235 on the front, but you can get away with 245s on the rear.
wheel spacers are illegal
u may end up getting a bit of rubbing with hard cornering but if its your daily and not a track car then i wouldnt be too worried.

Had 245/35/19 tyres on my car before and no issues with touching any suspension components..it all depends on the wheel offset and wheel width ,,if there are no scrub marks on the strut or on the tyre then it's ok..

Yep agreed re offset being the key. I run 245/35/19 (front) and 265/30/19) rear on my VT. It's a nice fit.
