Default Wheel and Tyre fitting

Hi all,
I did search the forum but can't find anything that's applicable to me due to offset.

I bought a set of wheels, 18 x 8 with Offset +45. I did the offset calculation and I will have 1mm less inner clearance. I am thinking of fitting front and rear with 235/40/18s. Rear should be alright, just not too sure whether front is ok. Should I go with 225/45/18 instead?

BTW stock suspension and height.

Thanks heap.

Not sure what your concern is.

If you are wondering if it will fit, it should. The L-Tuned 18s OZ Salinas front was 18x8 +45 with 235/40 tires.

Thanks. Just need someone to confirm 235/40 is ok for front before I get them online.

Thanks again.

Yeah they will work without any clearance issues.
