theres probably nothing wrong with the width ,but the only thing is that ur rim might stick out the fender , i have 235/40/18 rims, with a 18x7.5 width and they line up perfect with the fender...

+40... anything from a +40-+45 will be golden

+40 is really perfect for front... in the rear if you were inclined you could go with a 9.5" rim and fill the gap more. I am going to use a 10mmm spacer and extended lugs
