OEM sizes are:

16" used 205/225 on 6 and 7" widths, front and rear respectively
17" used 205/255 on 7 and 8.5" widths, front and rear respectively
18" used 225/265 on 7.5 and 9" widths, front and rear respectively

As mentioned, the reason folks run 225 on the fronts (17") is to reduce understeer.
