When you buy your tires get the following size and you will have the same overall size and there will be very minimal difference to no difference in your speedometer.

18s ----> 235/40/18 actually OLDSMAN has 255s on his 18s

17s ----> 225/45/17 maybe even 235s but i dunno for sure

EDIT: I found the reference for OLDSMAN

you will have NO problems with that size.

i'm running 255/40r18 up front and can turn lock to lock.

so to answer the max width i would say 9" wide sidewall to sidewall and that is at a 26" diameter tire.
