I've been on 265/35/18 +45 since the first week of October and I absolutely love them. Handles better, stops quicker, accelerates faster, looks much better. Over 40 pounds of unsprung weight reduction. They do kind of poke slightly in spots down at the bottom,but otherwise look very flush. Id def recommend rally armor mud flaps for them as even the stock wheels throw a ton of dirt/water down the side of the car. Plus they help compliment the wide look of the car. The sidewall is plenty, especially compared to a 245/30, though I believe 265/40 may be too much. Speed difference is minimal, they come out to a 25.3" diameter. I just put a -1.8% (forget exact value) into the speed correction in hondata. The speedo matches up with the GPS speed on my radar detector so it's good enough.
Id like to know that exact value please cause im looking at the exact wheel and tire setup maybe different brand but all the same measurements
