That will set you at a very aggressive stance, and a 215/35/19 is the smallest 19" they make, so I think your about max'ed out

ok. So the rears will need to be rolled?
will the speed rating be the same as thicker tires?

Yes a fender roll in the rear is needed, and speed rating would be 91Y front and 93Y rear - which is basically the same. depending on what brand you go with, i used Cooper as the example.
