Default 245/40/18 pics

Hey all, do you guys have some pictures with 18x8.5 wheels with 245/40/18 tires? I am looking for new setup i am not sure if I should go with 245/40/18 or 235/35/19. I tend to move to the more meaty side since it is my daily driver and our roads are not the best.
Also I am lowered on HR lowering springs so the car is about 1.2 inches lower all around.

That’s a nice setup. I was thinking of using a similar tire size but with a 45 profile instead of 40.

I put 19" wheels from an RX350. The tires were 245/40/18.





I put LS600HL 19"s on the 3GS. At first put 245/40/19





I had some rubbing so I decided to switch to Michelin pilot super sport to 45/35/19. They gave me the same exact wheel dimensions as the OEM 245/40/18
