Pick a tire, look at the specs chart on tirerack. it lists the actual diameter and tread width and recommended wheel size.

The tire sizes just posted are probably your best options for those wheel sizes, 245/35 is the closest to stock diameter, but even 265/35 ie only about 0.6" taller than stock.

New wheels

I need some help with my frs . I'm currently on stock suspension and I'm about to get new wheels? I want to know if 18x8.5 +30 will fit fine with no issues?
If not , someone tell me what 18 inch will fit and tires too.

Posts two and three of this thread will show you what fits and what doesn't, with links to threads where people have wheels in those sizes and offsets. It's very helpful.

I use this Tire calculator. Put in the stock tire size and the new tire size, compare!
