225/45/18 will rub all around and unless your on stock springs which even then odds are will rub. Also you will be massively over sized and the speedo will be off over 10 mph. I ran 225/40s at one point and they rubbed at full lock

I was running a 42 offset wheel 18x7.5. I was finding that the wheel was rubbing in the front on the plastic pieces at full left and right lock. Now this was with a drop on trd springs so with stock you may have no issues. The rear I war really close to the sub cross frame with the inside of the tire but never had any rubbing
