Safest 18" For Our Cars

[nemisis]

What is the safest size of 18" tire that can be used on our cars? The wife bought me new 18" rims and want to know a "perfect" fit tire. The rims are 18 X 7.5 and I have a choise of the following sizes and the car is lowered.
205/40/18
215/35/18
215/40/18
225/40/18
225/45/18
235/40/18
Thank you for any feed back you can give me on this.

225/40/18s are perfect for our cars...ive had over 4 sets on my car with no issues

x2. I've had Goodyear 225/40/18's on mine for two years. No problems and no rubbing even with my Eibach Sportlines.

for a 18x7.5 a 225/40-18 is the safest and best option. 235/40 is too wide for that wheel. Read the Wheel/Tire Tech sticky and you'll get all of this information.

def. the 225 40 18. There are a ton of tire choices in that size as well.

I like my Falken FK452s and a number of locals here like the Kumho MX's
