For 245, you'll want to run 245/45/18 which is 26.7" tall. The closest you will get to stock height.

For the rears, stock are 245/45/18, which are 26.7" tall.

For 275, you'll want to run 275/40/18 which is also 26.7" tall.

So your original specs were fine. These sizes will be perfect.
Yeah those sizes should be perfect. I switched to the Continental DWS (all season) and got 245/40/18 front and 275/35/18 rear. I think I will switch to the DW summer tires when I need new ones and go with 245/45/18 and 275/40/18. It will be cheaper to install (30 series tires cost a lot more to install than 40 series) and will help with my scraping issues on driveways since my car is lowered.
