I plan to run 245/35/18 or 245/40/18 (this change the speedo ratio a bit so I prefer first choice)
I dont think 245 is going to be super stretched. You can safely run 245/35/18 on that size wheel. Different tire manufacturers have variances and tolerances in sizes so they can be more wide or narrow when comparing two of the same sizes from different manufacturers. If you dont feel comfortable with a 245 you can even fit a 255 if you like with coilovers that wont be an issue.

Yes, i would recommend a 245/35 or 255/35 as your tire choices. I like keeping my tires close to OEM specs as well but its all just personal preference.
