So the rim won't stick out the front side panel? My biggest concern besides rubbing.
It's been a while so don't recall stock offsets but these wheels will stick out at least 10mm more than your factory wheels. It'll give a nice flush stance but I don't think it'll stick past the fenders. But like I said with a 225 you won't rub anywhere, however with a 235 you might rub where wheel liner where the bumper meets the fender.

I meant Hankook R-S3. Both the R-S3 and Star Specs I mentioned are high performance summer tires so if you're not dealing with snow, you should be fine. I personally like the SS a bit more because they handle wet better.

Worst case, if you do find yourself rubbing, you can pick up a set of Rogue Engineering fixed camber plates, get an alignment and dial in some negative camber which will help will help with handling at the slight expense of uneven tire wear. But I don't think these will be necessary.
