How about a 225/50/17 (25.9" tall) front and the 255/45/18 (27.1" tall) rear? That would be a 4.4" front sidewall and a 4.5" rear. Sound better?

Finding tire sizes that work for you, and a tire mfr/model that cover both front and rear sizes is truely a PITA.
The sizes you mention above would work well together, same size sidewall and slightly larger diameter rear. A-Bodies are deceivingly large cars, 27" rear is as small as I would go. My last car was a Buick GS400, I ran a 28"+ 275/55/17 tire on the rear (after installing a smaller tire and not liking it) and it was perfect.
In the end you may have to go to a shop and have a couple different sizes installed and see just what makes you happy.
