I have since raised the car all around 0.75cm w/ alignment. Absolutely no rubbing
thanks for the info!

agreed that for a non-rubbing config, 245/40/18 is too tall (25.7" Dia), whereas a 245/35/18 or 235/40/18 are both < 25.3" Dia. It's just a question of how bad the rubbing will be...I'm more ok w/ it rubbing on the fender liner occasionally, as long as it's not on the strut or fender.
