Tire size

[johawk79]

I've tried searching, maybe I'm just not as good with this computer stuff as I thought. I just bought an 07 Camry and am going to put 18s on it next week. I have noticed that most people go with 225/45R18s. If I am not mistaken Toyota had the option of 235/45R17 on some of the cars. My plan was to get 18x8s with 245/45R18. In my 11 years working in the automotive field, I have never seen a car that couldn't go another 10mm wider on the tires from the factory. However, I'm not about to spend $1500 on tires, rims, TPMS sensors and mounting to find out that 245s are too wide. So... what do you guys think?

Guess not

anyways it all comes down to offest. You should see some of the set up the guy's on here have.
but like I said it all depends on the offset ...

+1 on the offset.
Even of the offset is in safe range of +38 to +45 offset, I still don't recommend put on 245-45-18. If you want to go wide then go with 255-40-18. I had that for the HR5 rims in the rear. I like that a lot.
