Agreed 245/45. ODY is definately the resource to respect. As mentioned 245/45 x 18 are the size you'll find on the factory "v" wheels. Only difference is that they have a 42mm offset vs 40 mm which visually doesn't make much of a difference (especially considering that you have 8" wide rims vs 8.5" on the "v"...

Anyone heard of Nexen N3000 tires? Are they any good? I see some being sold for like $385 for the set plus shipping..was just curious if anyone knew anything about Nexen tires? Are they crap?

Hey I was wondering if you got those 18" wheels off ebay cause I saw that you can get a $50 discount if you got more people to get them. I have been looking at them and wanted to also purchase for my 03 CTS. I can't send PM's yet since I am a new member. If you havent got them yet let me know by posting on this thread because I'm down and we can figure it out from there.
