Default will the sc430 rims fit with 245/40/18 up front?

hey guys quick question

my gs4 is dropped 2 inches all around...will the sc430 rims (18x8) i bought fit with 245/40/18 up front without rubbing, or should i downsize to 235/40/18? i realize that the aspect ratio (xxx/40/xx) remains the same, but going from 235 to 245 increases the sidewall height by approximately 1cm. would 245 rub at all?

i'm currently running perfectly fine on 225/40/18, but they're so skinny, and it kills my ride quality.

any suggestions?

Should be fine. The rims are either +45 or +50 offset (I can't remember) but both are conservative and will fit the GS just fine.
