Depends on the width, a 245/35 has much more tread height than something like a 225/35 would.

True but the rims im getting at the end of The month are 18x8s and I just want the thickkest tires on em I can fit so I have a smaller chance of denting or something if I hit a pot hole.

"35" is a percentage of the section width (245mm). So the wider the tire, the taller the sidewall if the aspect ration stays the same.

Oh Okay 2 more questions..
Will 18x8 rims fit fine? I Just need to make sure.
Can I get away with 245/40/r18?
