Default has anyone tried 225/50/16 all around?

hi. what are the goods and bads if i put 225/50/16 all around for my ap1? car is lowered by 1 inch. will i have any understeer? thanks.

reason is i found i set of re760(225/50/16) for a really good deal. they are almost new. now i have all 4. trying to sell 2 but don't have any buyers. so i am wondering if i should just put all 4 on the wheels. since the front has only about 50% left.

thanks in advance.

It can be done. You will have more oversteer and the AP1 can be tricky enough as is, so keep that in mind and get a feel for it before pushing the car hard.

With the way the car wears rear tires you can just save two of the rears. You will end up needing them before your fronts wear out. You can just buy two of the 205/55R16 to match and you are good to go. If I can help let me know.
