I've had this setup for a while but now I'm changing to 225/35 17's on the rear. Been told it's best to have a 20mm difference between the front and rear. How do you find it?

I find it handels like its on Rails wet or dry but i was going to go for 225's but was told they would look strange on 7" wide wheels but i think i will be going for 225's next time but with a 45 profile is what i was told to get

Well, thanks to info from people on this forum I've found out that a 35 profile is better as it's much closer to the stock speedo reading than the 45 profile. I also prefer low profile tyres :) .
