Your fine up front even lowered, but I stay 245 as the widest in back. You've got room for more sidewall though. I'd do a 245-50/18 rear and 265-45/18 front. Remember the width determines the height.

Thanks for posting the pics. What rims are those and how much clearance do you have to the strut in the back? I'm thinking about the same upgrade for mine.

I've run 255/45/18 with a +35 offset, only rubbed on the outside rear fenders when loaded down with four passengers and luggage - large dips in the road. Currently running same size on +42 18x8 wheels, no more rubbing
