I run 235/45/18 on Z springs no trouble at all. I think 245 would be fine too.

the problem with 235/45-18 is that not many tires are offered in that size. i have yet to find something decent in that size... 245/45-18 is a lot LOT more common.

Yes, 235/45 is very limited selection...but the Kumho Escta SPT's are a good tire and cheap.

CFaber,

I went with HP EVO Lightning- hypersilver dark in 18x8 all around with +38 offsets. The tires are General Tire Exclaim UHP from www.tirerack.com
They are pretty cheap and got lots of good reviews. So far they have been great in wet and dry conditions ( no snow experience yet). The tech area at tirerack is a good place to check if the tires you want will fit well on various rim widths. I like the slightly wider stance than 235's and there were very few choices at the price I was willing to pay.

i had the 245/45-18 ContiExtremeContacts installed yesterday afternoon. Just a few miles on them, but so far so good.
