Is this tire too small???

Hey Guys,

I'm still shopping around for good tires. Just Came across a great deal but the tire size is smaller than stock.

The great deal is on a 245/40/18 My stock tire is 245/45/18.

Is there a big difference between the two??? On my other car i went from 55 to 50 and there was no difference but going down to 40 I feel like I would be running on Rims.

What do you guys think?

I think it should be fine...There shouldn't be too much difference in ride.

The smaller the tire, the bigger the rim will look.
