Just as the title says, I wanted to know if this is doable. The Fronts are 205/50 on the 17x7 wheel and rears are 225/45 on 17x7.5 207M wheels. I have four of the 225/45 and would want to make it a square setup for the summer.

I think it would be alright, though the tire shop I have an appt this weekend says otherwise. I just wanted to know what opinion the community has about this. If not, I guess I'm stuck with the RFTs for now.

Tires I will be using are Advan S Drives 225/45/17.

I hope you guys can help out. Thanks in advance.
