what do you want to know??.. 275/35/18 will fit in the back, depending on your rear wheel's offset, I rubbed with +35 18*9.5, but I rolled my fenders, problem solved, as the front, 245/40/18 should fit, since I run 235/35/18 18*8.5 +35, I thought about running 245 myself to fill up the fender well better...I don't know if this answer your question but, state your question if it didn't

I wouldn't go more then 235 in the front. You want skinner tires up front so your car "turns" into the corners. Having big wide tires are nice, but remember they cost and weight a whole lot more. Expect your mpg to go down a lot. But if you autoX, go for it, but with 235 in front.
