225/40/18 is a very common size. You’ll be able to find a good variety of tires for good prices. That size is under a 2% difference from stock and the speedometer will be about like 1.14mph under your actual speed I think. 235/40 is a 3.2% difference and the speedo will be almost 2mph under. I’ve seen people even running 215 on an 8 inch wheel too, but it’s up to you. I’d just take the 225/40/18. It’ll look good on the wheel, you’ll save some money, and it’ll be lighter than the thicker tire
