I understand why you might be worried, but I personally would not want to get tires any smaller than those if I'm going to be putting on 20's. 30-35mm is between an 1-1/4" and 1-1/3". If you go much smaller than that you are going to have one harsh ride and risk damaging you wheels if you hit anything too hard, especially with a stiffer suspension.

Those sizes should be OK...anything smaller will look funny and defeat the purpose of 20"s. Plus with the coilovers, can't you adjust ride height?
