im running 255/35/18 on the 18 x 9.5 +30. iknow it will be a little stretched, but i have a really good deal for 245/40/18 and i need tires bad. so has anyone used that combo without rubbing?

Of course that tire will fit on that rim, but I highly doubt that's your real question.

I know you say you need tires soon, but 245/45-18 would be a big waste of money for a nice 18X9.5. You'd have these nice big rims designed for wide tires with a low profile, yet you'll have very thin tires with a large sidewall. It will be ugly as hell.
