I have 245/40/18 on my stock 3GS wheels. I think 245/45/18 may be too tall of a sidewall and make the wheels look even smaller.

I'm planning to go with 245/40/18 rear and 225/40/18 for the front. I have 245/40/18's all around, but wanted to go smaller in the front on 18/8.0's..

245/40R18 is the closest diameter to stock.

I would check out tire rack and see what size does not throw off your speedo that much. 245/45/18 for me.
