    It's probably no trouble to have 225's on front and 215's at rear, but I'd swap them around to have the narrower ones on the front - it's more usual to have it that way.

    my 225's are on the front with 215's on the rear. No problems and its only like 10mm difference so who's gonna notice? But it is good pratice to have the newer tyres fitted to the rear.
