You should run a 235 40 18 to keep the 40 series tire.. Wish I would did that instead of a taller tire. The lower profile makes the rims look bigger and makes the car lower

40 series look way too small on a bigger car. I would go 45 series to keep the tire diameter closer to the stock diameter so your speedo isnt off.

Ya they are 40s..

BTW the spedo is about 1.6 mph off if you calculate it.. so if your going 60 your going about 58

If you are undecided, this is a good place to get an idea what it will look like. You can choose wheels, wheel size and tire size as well as ride height. Pretty cool.
