Just ordered A-SPEC 18x8 +45mm offset wheels - need help with tire size!

Hi guys,

I just ordered A-SPEC 18x8 +45mm offset wheels for my Acura TL 06 AT base (no drop)

Wheel spec.:
18x8 (not 18x8.5)
Offset: +45mm

I need help to choose the proper tire size!
225/40/18 or 235/40/18 or ???

I don't know if you need this info but I'm on stock suspension (no drop).

What would be the proper tire size for me?
Thanks!
R1ck

225/40/18 for stretched look
235/40/18 for performance
245/40/18 for some extra protection

I'm personally going with 245/40/18's on my new 18/8 A-Spec's

Guess they don’t want to do a search or don’t believe what they read. Certainly enough threads to made a decision.
