Also it is verified I do have to run 225/40 in front?

thank you anyone..
I've run a few different kinds of 305/30-19 tires on my stock suspension (other than sways) Turbo without any rubbing issues.

With a 315/25-19 that's a 25.2" height you need something taller and the optimal size would be the 235/35-19 at 25.5". Of course these measurements vary slightly from tire to tire brand/type but in general these are pretty close. A 225/35-19 would be the same exact size at 25.2" but again that varies by tire so you could end up with something that's slightly smaller, which you don't want. The 225/40-19 is going to be too tall at 26.1" to go with the 315/25 rear so you definitely want the 235/35-19 to match the 315.
