Default Need tire size info

So I just bought SPORT EDITION KM11 wheels and I need help choosing the tire size. So the recommended tire size is 225/40/18 and I was wondering if I can run a 225/45/18 with out it rubbing or anything.

Yes there won't be any problems running the 45 series tire, might affect your speedometer by a little bit (1-2mph) other than that no issues
