Opinions on Different Sized Tires
I am getting new tires and I was thinking of getting them a little wider, stock tires are 225/45/18, what I want to get is 245/40/18 so the are slightly wider. I would like you guy's opinion,
should I get them wider or stick to stock sizes
or, maybe go staggered with the tires, stock sizes in front and wider in the back
You feedback is appreciated. Thanks

if you are using stock wheels, you do not want to stagger it. it will ruin the handling and there's no reason to do that unless you have wider wheels in back to back it up. I don't recommend stuffing going more than a 245 tire on an 18x8 inch wheel. that's already 9.5 inches of rubber on 8 inches.

I was planning to go 255/40 on the rear or even maybe 265/35, but I allready have new tires, but if you are on stock wheels stick with 245/40 is better than the stock tire size.

Bighurk: you want to run 245 up front and 255 in the rear on STOCK wheels?
there's no benefit to that as Ngo pointed out.
When I had OEM wheels I ran 245/40 all the way around and it worked very well with the car
