Wait....your tires are not going to match and can/will cause issues with your AWD system.

If you are going to run 225/35 up front, id go with 265/30 in the rear.

Oops, didn't realize OP had an AWD. Yeah scratch what I said, you need to match up as close as you can possible. Take stretching into consideration as well.
