The information you need is in the sticky at the top of this forum...Section 4.1...suggest you check it out:

Wheel Fitment Guide

If all else fails...tirerack.com will tell you what the stock sizes are:

You got the correct size for the rear with stock front.

Those tire with the oem front tires are going to give you massive oversteer. You really shouldn't mix and match tire brands/models. You have the correct size but your handling will be much different. Don't push it like you might have before.

245/45-16 Is the correct tire size for 16" wheels.

245/40-17 Is the correct tire size for 17" wheels.

245/35-18 Is the correct tire size for 18" wheels.


Quick Reply: Did i get the wrong size?
