I am considering getting Sumitomo 245/40/18 htr with 18x9 Saleens. (all the way around)
Opinions please on the quality on this brand of tire, and perhaps opinions on this tire size with this wheel.

I have heard opinions that with this tire size you're likely to have the wheel sticking out past the tire and be in more danger of curb rash.
So what's the verdict, Good tires? Gay setup w/ too small of a tire for this wheel?
