2008 RX 350 tire size question
Hi everyone.
I have a 2008 RX 350 with OEM 235/55/18 tires. My brother has given me 3, like new Michellin P245/45 R18 tires. Of course I would have to buy the 4th tire. These are $240+ tires.
Does anyone know if these would fit my car? I was going to go to the tire place and have them try one on before buying the 4th tire, but wanted to see if anyone on here knew.
Thanks for your help.

Way too short you would be losing about 2 full inches of overall height. The revolutions per mile would be much higher causing the speedo and odometer to run faster. Also, the final gearing would be higher keeping RPM's up at cruising speeds.
