245/40 is NOT perfect for potholes bro....245/45 would be better cushion in NYC

but likewise, as CCx said, 245/40/19 would be best but 19's are not safe in NYC at ANY rate

do as u please tho

Do you really need wheels and tires that wide? Wider not always better.

I got 245/40/18s

You might be able to get away w/ it rear but not front. I'm assuming you have lowering springs too.

That's the main reason why I went w/ 18s. Too many potholes to dodge.
