I have 245/40/18s and stock suspension - they rub when the suspension gets fully compressed and I have the wheel on full lock. Otherwise I have had no issues.

255/40's fit. I run 255/40 Victoracers on the stock rims with Tanabe lowering springs. I wouldn't put anything bigger than a 255 on the stock rim.
