Looking for some HELP! Equivalent size to 245/35/18's

I'm having a bit of a problem - I recently purchased some Bridgestone Potenza 960 Sport A/S's. I can't complain about the quality, but I HATE the size profile. I was originally running 760 Sports - 245/35/18's. The size was perfect, but the 760's wore out way too quickly. I can get the 960's as they have a mileage warranty of 40k, but I NEED another size! I can't do this huge sidewall thing, with measly 18's! I've read that 265/35s are equivalent...but I have no idea if the size will fit. The 245/40/18's are rubbing...for some reason (there's plenty of clearance, but I'm definitely hearing it). As you can assume, I'm dropped and there's roughly an inch and a half remaining between the ground and my side skirts - it's a medium drop. HELP?! ANYONE?!
