Anyway, I will be getting 245s once these tires need replacing.
koreanpers,
I have not seen anyone posting that they have used the "fat" setup (245/45) on 18s. I wondered the same thing before but I figure I'd revisit the issue when it is time to replace my tires.
The other issue with running fat is the tire. On 19s, you are still running 40-series tires. On 18s, the 45 may start to show too much tire (if that is an issue for some). It would be a softer ride though.

Would it help if i disconnected the battery and let it sit, so the ecu will relearn the intake? Will that work?

Also, expect to lose low-end torque with an intake but gain high end. That's why you need an exhaust (lose high end but gain low end) --> It will all even out.

Brice -- UGO front STB arrives on Friday and I'm going to get sways next, then after that I'm going to go for the wheels and drop. In this order because Christmas is coming up next month and I should have the front STB and sways done before then ...
