Default Does anyone run a 3dr with 225/35/17 front & 245/35/17 r

Just wondering if i can fit the above size, 235/40/17 fit ok on the rear as i use this size on trackdays, anybody out there use 225/35/17 & 245/35/17 ?

I'm running RL7's 8x17, ca'nt read the et but its around et25 or et30.

Cheers Simon.
