Default will this work

hey guys im going to be getting some rpf1's soon most likely in 17x9+45 non staggerd cuz i want them to be concave front and rear, and my question is will it be ok to run a 225 tire frnt and 245 rear? will that help even out the grip so i dont have oversteer? or should i just run same size tire frnt and rear? thanks guys

Without commenting on whether or not it'll fit without a rub, lemme just say I'm not a fan of the look of 225/45-17 fronts (25" OD) with 245/40-17 rears (24.7" OD). 225/45-17 fronts don't look right unless you go with 255/40-17 rears (same height).

Personally, I'd sooner try 235/40-17 up front rather than 225/45-17. Wider, but significantly shorter (24.4"), maybe less likely to rub.

I will tell you that it will take some work to make them fit. There are a lot of guys running that set up though. Some negative camber and maybe a fender lip roll.
If I can help let me know.
