If you want to run 225's then you probably should have gotten an 18x8. A 245 would be a much better fit for a 9" wide wheel. +45 shouldn't have any poke, although you may run into inside edge clearance issues if you're on springs vs. coilovers. A 3mm spacer would help with that though. The wheel poking out is a function of wheel offset, not tire width.


Tire brand and model is a pretty debated topic with no one answer. It comes down to what you want to do, what kind of weather you face, will you have or even need separate winter tires, etc... Michelin Pilot Super Sports often rise to the top of those conversations when talking about summer tires. Tirerack, Costco, Discount Tire, your local place right down the street; check the prices at all of them and pick the best one.
