Default Could I do a 245-40-18

or is it too wide?
I found a great deal 300$
for 4 ADR Cyphers with 245-40s on them, none are curbed at all, but i'm worried about the tire, These have like 35% tread left in, but I would replace them in a couple months. Just wondering if they'd fit fine?

thanks!

They might,if your offset on the wheels is at least 45 or 48

That tire is also pretty tall. The offset of the wheels will play a big role on fitting. Are you lowered?

No its a bad idea, it will throw your speedo off and it will more than likely rub. If you really want to keep the 245 width I'd recommend you go with a 35 series tire. That way you'll keep your overall wheel diameter and will lessen the chance to rub.

Well, I would only drive on them for a couple weeks.
And are ADR's bad or something?
