Will they fit?
I took forever deciding what rims I wanted, and i landed on TE37 in a 18x9.5 et 45. Now I知 looking at tires, and I知 tempted to run a 265/40/18 in the Yokohama Advan AO52 in a square set up. They have a 10 inch tread width and run tall at 26.5 inches tall.
im at stock height and refuse to roll fenders. Will those fit front and back, and how detrimental to gearing is the extra half inch in tire height?
i originally only wanted to hit 11s, but I値l probably run a couple of track days so I want great all around tires. The streets here suck, so the extra cushion will be nice as well.
Will they fit with no rubbing / rolling fenders?

If you're sticking with a 265 I would go with a 35 series tires but, either way, The width will not be an issue whatsoever. The 265/35/18's on my Advan wheels in those same specs have a bunch of clearance even with my car being really low.

265/35 won稚 survive here. Our roads are 99% the same condition of Chicago / New York. I致e bent rims multiple times on 255/35s (three wheels).
Since I spent soooooo much on my Volks, I壇 like a little more height. The other option is 275/35 square... but I found a sweet deal on the 265/40s.
