Why not use the same size tires all around?

Don't use your back rims for a spare on the front that's for sure didn't want to drive in a rain storm with the spare on the front and not thinking the rear rims would be wider and messed up not just one tire and rim from a pot hole but two rims and tires from it rubbing on the strut / shock and then to find a set of 4 17inch rims with 5x112 and a 66.6 center bore well that's like finding a needle in a haystack was not a fun day anyways

Rear from being on the front

Front from the pot hole

If you are trying to improve ride quality, look at tirerack.com surveys for Grand Touring All Season and consider any of the top 5...you will see their relative merits.
i have a question

17x8 and 225/45ZR-17 at all 4 corners. Couldn't be happier.

Hi! Welcome to the internet! What are the specs on the 19" wheels that you bought? Are they the same size all around? What offset are they?

There are a number of threads in this forum that talk about wheel and tire sizing, stock and aftermarket, like here or here. There are also other resources, like tirerack.com, that show you the stock and optional tire sizing. I think the Owner's Manual lists the different wheel and tire sizes, too (as listed out in post #20 in that 2nd thread I linked above). With that information and one of the bazillions of tire fitment websites (like www.willtheyfit.com, for example), it should be very easy to find what 19" tires will work.
