How will 255-35-18 (Front) and 225-35-18 (rear) will look? I am getting the rims from a friend who has those tires on them right now.

Too small, but that's my opinion. Heck that's smaller than stock.

Why would you put the wider tire in the front? Anyway here is how 225's will look:

Sorry i meant 255 in the rears and 225 in the fronts. I know i'll have to buy like 275 or maybe 295 to make it look decent. Do you have a side pic of your car? nice car btw.

225's are about as wide as the spare tire . Suriously though I think the 225's should be fine for up front as long as the wheels are sized correctly for them and 255 are wider than the stock wheels so they should be ok. If the front wheels need something wider than a 225 I wouldnt drive it that way cause it wont be the safest thing to do. With that narrow of tire up front u might save some weight and almost be like having skinny's up front.
