uhh, dont stagger your tire sizes that much unless you have alot of power or your suspension is set up for it.... which it probably isint if you dont even have aftermarket springs and shocks/coilvers if it were me i would get 215/45s all around, thats what i put on my 17x8 in regamasters. their a bit stretched but i love em.
