Default ap1 wheels with rt615 tires

I am thinking to order rt615 tires for my ap1 wheels
after checked out the size for 16

they only have . 225/50/16 rear and thinking 205/40/16 front.
is this the right combo for ap1 wheels?

didn't think should put 215/45/16 front and 225/50/16 rear, but I'm really not that sure since I heard non-oem rear should be 245/45/16

can anyone who also run rt615 on their ap1 wheels share some inputs?

thanks,

I have the 215,225 combo, still oversteers, but in slaloms it's pretty neutral, just have to be easy on the gas. DD usage is another thing. They are stiff, so the ride is going to decrease a bit. Treadwear isn't that great, I estimating at this rate, I could get maybe 8K miles max so far, with them being flipped as well

The size tires you mention are not even close to what you should be running. Both of the front size tires you mention are way too short.I would just find another tire that is going to work correctly.
