Wouldn't you be better off to get wheels that are close to the stagger of the OEMs front to rear? I don't think +43 is going to work well with 225/255 either.

Best to go with staggered rims.
"i know the front i should put some 205 and rear maybe 225 or 235. any suggestion for the width." Those ARE the widths. What is your question?
"will 205 45 17 & 225 55 17 work?" No, those won't work. You'd look like an SUV with those tall skinny tires.
