Default NSX tire size

I've gone through almost all the threads regarding the tire size that are advised to run but haven't come across a thread for the particular setup I'm looking to use.
Basically I came across a cheap set of 95 nsx chrome wheels that'll come with Front - 215/45/16 and Rear - 245/40/17.
Now based on the research I did the rears are the ideal size to run but for the fronts it has been suggested that we run 205/55/16 or 225/50/16 and so on.
The thing is will 205/55/16 and 235/45/17 be ok to run?
Why the odd setup? Because I just bought the 205/55/16's a couple weeks ago coz I needed new tires for my stock ap1 rims and realized that my rears were toast as well. So I decided to just look for used set for the time being but I came across the nsx rims. The 235/45/17's I am buying from my friend for a really good deal which are re-11's for a hundred bucks. Thats why I'm wondering if any of you know that this setup will be ok.

They would fit but your rear tire is going to be taller than stock by about 1/2". It can be enough to throw off the anti lock brakes. If I can help with the tires let me know.
