I put the same size wheels on my car. I used 245/40 18 in front and 275/35 18 in the back. They are +35mm back spacing. Also, this tire size is the exact same height as factory so you don't have to worry about your speedo being off.

I like those wheels. The only thing that I'm kind of iffy about is the center section with all the holes around the lug area.

I was too at first, but they're set in so deep I don't even notice it anymore. I just want to find some different centercaps for 'em. Unless you're talking about strength, they're solid, and with that extra webbing around the lugs I doubt it'll be an issue.
