Sorry for being so vague, I'm new to the forum. My wagon wheels are stock 17 and 18 inch with Goodyear 245/45/17 and 275/40/18 currently on the car. I was just curious if there was any other possible combos without compromising the car. Thank you for all your help. My C5 is base model hatchback coupe.

You can go up or down one width on either. I wouldn't change an aspect ratio. And I wouldn't go up on one and down on the other...
What are you wanting to accomplish or change? Hard to guess what your intent is.
