tire question for G35 6mt 05'

hello,
I have a G35 6mt 05' Sedan
The original wheel is 18 x 7.5j
I want to change tires.
But there isn't any all season tires fit this spec.
I just got information that 245/45/18 or 225/40/18 (conti-extreme contact)fit to this wheel...
Please help me to determine which one is better for my car??

Nope Nope Nope,
245/45/18 is the biggest you want to go without throwing off the speedo too much. I run 245/40/18 S0-3's on my sport wheels. 225/40/18 is going to be way smaller than the stock tire. If you want you could go with a 225/45/18 for fuel saving reasons, as the skinnier tire has less of a contact point.

mikeemaf- what would be the point of going with a staggered tire set-up if the wheels arent staggered??? You're taking away your option of rotating your tires, hense you wont get as many miles out of them.

mc2- The 05 6mt coupes come with 19's, this guy has a sedan with sport wheels (18")
