Stock suspension.
The rear tires have less than 1000 miles on them, when they wear, I plan to replace with 265 or 275.
The front is a very tight fit, only 5 or 6 millimeter clearance from tire to strut. I believe there is a slight rub, but only occurring at full-lock turn.
id swap the front to a 235/40/18 and the rear 265/35/18. You'll find the front fits nicely and still looks like a thick sidewall and the rear will be slightly wider but much better looking wit the drop in aspect, they ae still thick tyres however... the 245/40 upfront on this car just doesn't work from my own static tests.
