Hey o5sdeuce,

What size tires did you go with on those rims...?

I was thinking about 225 in the front and 235 in the rear.

Get ready for oversteer.

You should have more stagger than that. Take a look at the Wheel Fitment Guide sticky.

After looking at the fitment guide it looks like I could go with 215 in the front and 235 in the back since I'm going to have 7.5 in the front and 8.0 in the back.

Do you think there would be oversteer with this set up???

You're almost there. Check out the Tire Sizes sticky as well. That has all the info you need on choosing tires. Basically you need to check out the specs of the tires you'd like to use, and find out what the "tread width" is. Then choose tires that have similar tread width differences front to rear. For instance, the OEM AP1 tire tread widths are 7.1 and 8.5" for front and rear, respectively. So the rear tread width is 1.4" wider than the front. When choosing your tires, you should try to maintain that 1.4" stagger.

I know this thread is super old but just thought I'd share if anyone still gets e-mail updates:

I've got a set of these for sale if anyone is interested:
