Default Is 255/45/18 too wide ?

I have a brand new set of 255/45/18 from my last car and want to put on ASA 18x8 wheels with 35+ offset for my 2001 Lexus LS430. Will this set up work or do I need to go with the recommended size 245/45 or 235/50 ? any help is appreciated. I'm new

suppose to be 235/50/18, but 255 will be ok with just one size difference. It will only cause very little effect like when you doing 60 you are actually is doing 61.!

imho 255 is a bit too wide for the 8, but it's not like it won't work. usually 245 is the standard size for 8.5
