Nice! Well, the 50% heat rejection is also nice

Mechatune,
These wheels and tires are off my previous car, so I didn't pick the size. A 45 sidewall is too big for 18s, it would be way out of spec.

Firsthonda,
Using a tire size calculator, this set up is +1.0% different than the standard size. However, I haven't upset the cars electronics by doing this. A 235 wide tire would be -0.2% different, so you could really go with either. I like having the fattest tires I can fit though

Bervzci1,
The ride is definitely on the firm side, but it isn't a rough ride by any means. This is with 40 sidewall though, you would have to go with a 35 or even a 30 sidewall(depending on the width of the wheel) for 19s which would probably make the ride awful. If you want a decent riding car, don't get 19s.

Cool thanks. So you could of had 7.5 inch wide rims that would of used the 235 tires instead of 8 inch and 245? The wider better tired have to help with stopping distance big time? I heard the stock tires are awful for stopping distance. But i guess they were b the most comfy ride.

Ah, use 'em if u got'em. I would've gone with the more popular 225/45/18. I personally don't like the rubber band look of 40s, but you're actually closer to stock at +1% speed increase compared to the +2% with 225/45.

I would just be worried if it's too far off that it will mess with the electronic sensing systems in the car.
