OK, I'm looking into 18" wheels (probably from JHP, so they should fit...) and I am looking to run 245-40-18's. Will these fit without rolling any fenders or anything? I seem to have noticed that the factory Holden's w/ 18" wheels usually run 235's.

Any input on this would be greatly appreciated. (BTW, I noticed a couple of folks were running this size tires on their aftermarket wheels, where the backspacing may or may not have differed from OEM requirements. Just checking!!)

Also, as an FYI, the wheels I'm looking at are the 18" versions of the OEM wheels that JHP has listed on their site.

The 245/40-18s are pretty much the same diameter as the 245/45-17s (25.7"). They are the same width. So they should fit the same as the 17s, assuming similiar offset on the new rims.

I have 245/40/18s on TSW rims with 41mm offset (backspacing). Perfect fit.
