YOu will need to get the correct backspacing wheels to make it work right. In the rear, you probably want 4" backspacing (zero offset) but you could go a little either way with a 225 tire. The largest tire you can get into a stock wheelwell with stock springs and rearend is a 275. Again, zero offset works.
