Tire size 255 rear
Just wondering if sticking with the 225/45/18 Front and switching to a 255/40/18 in the rear instead of the 245/45/18 would work ok with traction control, VDC, touring 18" wheels, etc?

I honestly wouldnt worry about it. You can always turn off the tc if you have too many issues. Im running 255s up front and 305s in the rear and its fine. Sure there are some issues with the TC but its totally livable. I only notice it once a couple of weeks if that.

The oem rears 245/45/18 are Overall Diameter:26.68 in even taller then the 255/40's....so thats even taller again...not sure if I am following your theory
