25s are too big.
You'll probably blow 23s off down first and second. Get a good boost controller and learn to drive the car on the 23s since you already have em.

24.5 x 9s are ideal

but 23s will work. I had 23s on a 15" steelies back in the day on my car that was makin 430whp and it would spin some in first
