Ted, I don't believe that will work without rolling the fenders.

.........Thank you. I currently have 225/40/18 in front and 265/35/18 in rear. Someone on this forum was concerned that it may induce over-steer and recommended that I use 235/40/18 in front. I already have in my garage 245's and I was wondering if I cpuld use it, now i know the answer....no. Are 235's that much smaller amyway?

Ted, which 245/40/18 do you have sitting around? Maybe you can sell them. Good Luck!
