Here are the stats I got from 1lowmx6 who claimed not to having any rubbing issues with his 19s:
235/35/19 on the wheels.
the rims are 19x7.5 with 40mm offset.
I run 235's on my 1g with an 8.5" and the tires are perfectly matched. How you would get a 235 on a 7.5 is beyond me. I would definitely go with 225's myself.
Some tire manufacturers put up a recommended size of rim for their tires, like Hankook. As I understand it, if you put too wide of a tire on a rim, the sidewall ends up being less vertical than it should, increasing sidewall flex and decreasing handling as a result.
I'm sure the racing veterans have a better handle on it than I do, just warning you of the possible consequences.
I'm not a fan of big wheels, but I4MX6 stuffed a set of 19x9s under his car and it looked amazing. From what I can gather by looking at it, your car doesn't see 15k miles a year, so I'd take a peek at this thread:
His wheels had a +45 offset, and he ran 15mm spacers to get them to clear, but, according to him, +30 offset would do away with the need for spacers. If you're running a regular strut/spring combo, you may have some clearance issues, and he said they scrubbed over small bumps, so you'd need to roll the fenders a bit, but it's something to look into if your car sees a lot of shows.
That kit looks mean, by the way. Never seen anything like it.

Hey Gale, what kind of work was done on the rear bumper? Is that a custom piece you made yourself, or did you find one like that?
