Very similar setup to mine (my specs are in my sig, I currently have front Nitto555s in front too). You'll be fine until your suspension compresses. Then you could rub a tad in the front, more in the rear. Camber or narrower tires will help. Actually that's the size tires I'd go with and then when I got a chance I'd get an alignment shop to adjust my rear camber up to around -2.0deg and at the same time get them to decrease the rear toe to around half the recommended minimum rear toe (they'll probably argue with you about this). Good luck.

It will definitely work if you go 225 and 255 instead of 235 and 265. I have the VB3's in the same specs, the rears have rubbed once or twice with the 255/35/18 setup, but I was flying through the dips pretty fast. Never hear a peep otherwise.

235/45/18? That aspect ratio may be a problem as that makes that tire 1.5 inches larger diameter than the stock 215/40/18 size in the front... It's not just width that matters.
