Get un-lazy. Take a wheel off and check the inside for specs. That's the only way you're really going to know what you need.

+1 on get un-lazy and check the wheel specs

I personally think 245 is too wide for 7.5 wheels, I would keep the tire spec around the same as what you have now, this way you have more clearance when you go lower and it just looks nicer overall as it is now

my opinion
