Anytime I've seen a 1st gen F-body with 25" tires (regardless of rim diameter) it looks out of place. Probably because the wheel wells were designed for tires larger than that, stock. Too much fender gap fore/aft, even if you slam it to compensate for the top.

Plus you've already lost ground clearance because of overall diameter, and then you drop the car more to improve top gap (again it'll still look funny due to gaps on the sides) it's just more and more clearance lost.

I'd recommend, if you can fit it, using a 255/40R18. It's much closer to the factory tire height.
