Yup I had the same issue... i was still on 225 before i sold it.. I was gonna use 240 before, but the guy at the tire shop said it would still poke out... I think you will minimize ur issue with 245, and I am pretty sure there's gonna be no rubbing issue

Here was mine on a square setup.
19x8.5 with 8mm spacer on the rear

See I really want the concavity of the 18x9.5 but don't want 9.5 in the front. Plus, after seeing the Gram Lights 57FXX, I'm not sure if I want these or those now. Hmm...

Do you have a picture of your car from the profile view so I can see those rims. Thanks

Found this site that has the 18x8.5 +42 face 2. From the photos, it looks like it does have a slight concave. I ordered a 18x9.5 square setup, but if it looks like this for the 8.5 I might just change my fronts to this. I really didn't want to have a 9.5 front.
