my new rims!!!

my rims just came in the mail, they are 18x8" ADR's and i was wondering if a 245/45/18 series tire would rub. if so could i fit an 235 on it? i dont want to roll my fenders, (i dont know how). i did a search and couldnt come up with any answers, so any heip would be great, btw i have a gen 4.5 I4. with 15's stock

well i was just going to ask this. If you lowered your car and put 245's on, hell yes it's going to rub.... also with a 18x8 rims? those are wide as hell... i used to have 17x7.5 wheels with 225 45 17 and whenever i would have crap in my trunk and would go over bumps and stuff, it would rub....

Don't forget you also need to clear the bottom of the strut where it holds the spring as well as the fender.
