235/45R18 or 235/40R18?
if I had a choice i would prefer to stick to 225/45R18. however, we know that, in Singapore, this is an odd size for most tires. among reputed tires, so far, I could only find AD07 and PS1 (limited stock) for the above profile.
Given a choice, would you choose 235/45R18 or 235/40R18?
increase in ride height vs stock:
- 235/45: +4.5mm
- 235/40: -7.3mm
am thinkg of 235/45 as car is low and am worried of "humps" should the ride height is further lowered. any other things I should consider before making a decision?
also, any other tires I have missed out that carry 225/45R18 locally?
thanks in advance for any inputs.

Hey, correct me if i'm wrong but from wat i noe, 235/45R18 is the odd size one. i've jus changed my rims n tires and i was told tat is the 'odd' 1 (cas i find 225 too narrow n 40 too thin) and 225/45R18 is the 'normal' 1, ani verification?

235/40R18 no issue with most tires.
