Would this look right?
 
Im getting new wheels. I was looking for tires and came accross this deal thats giving me a headache. The wheels that im getting are size 18. Now the tires that im being offered for free actually are Michelin Pilot Sports Two tires are 225/45/18, these im thinking would be ok in the front. Now the other two are 245/45/18 am im thinking on putting these in the back. Should i go for these or not?

Thanks

You can run those sizes on 18" wheels... What's the width? 8"? I have G35 18's which are 18" x 8" and here's how it looks for me with 225 fronts and 245 rears:

I had to get smaller rears, though, as the 245 width rubbed every time I drove down the street. Now I've got 225/45/18 all around. (see sig for pics)

Yea i see what you mean. I kinda had an idea the 245 would rub, I guess I might just go with the 225 all around.

I'm running 245s all around and I have yet to rub. Then again I'm running a lower profile. 245/40/18

The thing is that my car is really low and im thinking it might rub:confused: But than im thinking that im getting a killer deal

you'll be fine with 245s. I'm running 245s and I'm pretty low, and when i have full car, i still don't rub. If not just roll your fenders
