how come you can get these deals so easily? It was Monoblock V before and now Carlsson 2/5? There arent that many of those wheels in town. I dont think 245 tires will fit the front. And if you want to have all four tires the same, it should be 225/40/18 or 235/40/18. What are the width of the wheels?

245/45-18 is too tall for your car
