Default confusion: 245/40/18 or 235/40/18...
I've done a search on these tire sizes but some posts do not state if it is on the sport package. the wheels width is 8.5" w/offset et 35.
I want to know if the first size rubs on the sport package. I have heard that the second size is too narrow on the rim and causes the sidewalls to flare out. Please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

That is a misprint on AoA's web site. They list tire size as 225, but that's wrong.
