Default 235/40/18 Front 255/40/18 Rear - Will this fit

Has anyone run 235/40 and 255/40 on their stock Grand Touring wheels?
Will this allow proper fitment? Also, will the TPMS system fit in the reduced sidewall?

Sorry if this question has been asked before, I searched to no avail.

I guess my concern is rubbing and/or fitting the sensors.


I am anxious to get a set of the new Sumitomo HTZRIII's for the car and this size combo offers a significant price savings versus other tires. The write up on the HTRZ sounds great.

This will work but do you have VDC? I am guessing it may jack that up a bit while driving due to the change in diamater of the wheel...


What about a 245/40/18 (or just go 225/45/18) front thats closer to stock in the front and do a 255/45/18 on the rear which is only a slight amount bigger then stock.. Should be equivelant off the top of my head to a 285/35/19 diamater...
