Tires are a tiny bit taller (.3) than stock, but should fit fine.

thanks guys do you think that offset will upset the handling or balance of the car in a bad way?

Even offsets/widths won't change the dynamics of the handling.

I disagree (somewhat).

Altering the TRACK of the car, whether via offset, wheel width, or a combination of both, can affect handling.

Obviously, a wider track is preferred, but keep in mind that extreme increases can increase loads on suspension components and lead to premature failure.

Equal track won't induce understeer or oversteer was my point

well that's the same size i'm running...but a 225 wouldn't clear up front...at least with my coilovers. They might with stock shocks. I can get my finger tip through between the top of the tire and the coils.
