Default need some help with tires.....

i was wondering if i could put some 245/45/18 tires on my 18 x 9.5 rear rims. i had some 255/35/18 tires previously but i have just had some bad luck with those (got slashed, ran over plenty of nails, etc. .) anyways....are those a good size in the rear? i found a deal for 2 245/45/18 for $100 w/ 7/32nds worth of tread left. If i could get any suggestions i would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

245 will look fine. very nice strech- just make sure your streching the fronts too, so the sizes seem to correlate.
