Tire size help please
I came across a sweet set of 18" staggered wheels for my vert c5 but don't know if the tires that I have will work. 245 40 18 for the front and 275 40 18 for rear. Just need help figuring out if I can use them without issues, any help with this will be greatly appreciated., thanks.

As a general rule, 245 width tires will fit on an 8.0"-9.5' wide rim with 8.5"-9.0" being ideal;
and 275 width tires will fit on 9.5"-11.0" rim widths with 10.0"-10.5" ideal.
