Traction will be similar-I ran the 225/50,255/45 combo for the function (cold & ugly winter weather)...but dang them tires are skinny.
Ride quality increased for me with fatter meats-but there’s a trade off on fuel consumption and cost....but you’re not getting close to that ballgame w/245/275’s.
Try to keep same tread compound for best traction & handling.
Excellent. Thank you so much for the response. I'm definitely going that route.

Do you know if you can drop it 1.2" using that same setup without having rubbing issues?

Also, with that drop and wheel/tire combination do you have any spacer experience/advice? I actually like the stock 18's, I just want to close the fender gap.
