Both tires sidewalls are the same height. Staggered tires usually drop 1 aspect ratio for the rear tires. 35 from 40. The number is a % of the section width. So 35% of 255 = 40% of 225. The math is not exactly perfect, but close enough for how tires work.

I love the wheels and tire sizes! Great job! Can't wait to see it when its lowered.
