225/40/18's Vs 235/40/18's tires

I did a bit of searching and couldn't help but notice guys using those size tires when running on 18" wheels. What problems will I run into by choosing one size vs. the other. BTW...The 225's are so much cheaper than the 235's, which is why I'm leaning buying

Seems as though most with 8" wide wheels are running the 235/40 version (I am).

you wont run into any problems besides the fact that one is slightly wider than the other. wheel width, offset, ride height are things you need to specify to get a better answer.

Yeah...

I am 18x7.5 and went 225/45/18.

I think you'd be okay...
