It should look Perfect from a side view provided you arent 4x4ing it around town. If I was ordering those wheels, they would be 25 et all around with 235 front and 265 or 255 rear. I am about to be changing my tires from 235 front 265 rear to 225 front 235 rear. And from the side, they look amazing!

Id get the 235, when it is dropped and you arent grinding the hell out of your fenders you will be happy.

I am daily driving the exact same sizes on 9s and 10s and about to go skinnier. When I had my GTI, I ran a 225 on a 10" wide wheels daily for over a year with no problems and just as nice a ride as the 255 on there before.

And, if you are getting FK-452's you will be just fine those tires are super comfortable and quiet.

Have a little faith my man! I havent run a non-stretched tire in 4 years on a daily of mine
