Well...the tires are a little big, but they will fit. The width is fine. The question is are the rims actually worth 700 bucks? What brand are they?

225 will fit, but i'd get a larger series tire, the tire is gonna look too small in the wheel well if you don't have a drop. I got 225/45zr18 with a 2" drop and everything is fine!!!!!

225/45 ?? Wow, that is big, your odometer will be way off.
Do you have any decent acceleration left?
