Will the low profile tires leave a big gap? Someone let me know.

those tires would be over an inch smaller than stock. It would look very strange. On a mid-sized sedan, 225mm wide tires would look normal; but, a 225/40/18 would be required to look proper.

Check this SC thread out to have an idea of how strange running the wrong tire diameter can look:

thanks, well I got them for cheap so I will just stick with them unless I notice it looking really weird. But yeah if it looks strange I will get the tire size you suggested.
