215F/235R if you want to keep the stagger without stretch. Otherwise, 225 all around.

Any consequences on the car behaviours?

I would look at 205/50R17 and 225/45R17. They are the same diameter as the stock tires and keep the same stagger.

Good idea, so what the best between :

205/50R17 and 225/45R17 and


215/45 front and 235/40 rear. In this solution, we have nearly the same diamater than in 17'wheels OEM dimensions. There is only 10 mm in the rear.

What to choose and why?

I might agree if he didn't have such tiny wheels, 7.5in all around is IMHO too narrow for the rear, I wouldn't even consider aftermarket wheels narrower than 8.5 in the rear (oem AP2 rear wheel width), My recommendation, sell two of the wheels and get two more of the same wheel but at least 8.5 inches wide then do 225 front, and 245 or 255 rear
