Default would these tires fit?

I ordered volk racing rims in aug and they should be here next month. Here are the specs:

Volk Racing CE28N - 17x7.5 +50 5x114.3 Gloss Black 2 668.80 1,337.60T
VR-CE28-179-63-514-BK Volk Racing CE28N - 17x9 +63 5x114.3 Gloss Black

Could I fit a 235 tire in front and a 265 in the rear? Can I go bigger?

225 in the front and a 265 would be fine in the back.

235 in the front may require a little camber or slight roll depending on if you are dropped and how much.

I don't like the 235 on the front either. Stay with the 225/45R17 and the 265/40R17 rear. With those wheels you will be fine.
If I can help with the tires let me know.
