Q: Should I run a wider 265 tire for more grip, or stick with 245?

It depends on how you drive. The 265/40R18 puts more rubber on the road for better dry grip and stability, and it suits spirited and track driving, best paired with the 18×9.5 width. The narrower 245/45R18 rolls with less resistance, which helps range and daily comfort. Going wide costs you a bit of efficiency every commute. On a lowered car, a touch of negative camber helps the 265 clear and wear evenly.
