    ....can you do???-certainly--actually both will work--either way--but I would do the 255/45 all around --if your looking to provide a little rake--then the 245 up front and 255 out back....it'll give a bit more show in the wheel well but not much....

    This may help you:

    and

    255-45-18 is a bit short for the rear.

    Ideally for non-OEM tires, go for 255/55/18 rear and OEM-size front 235/50/18

    Keep the rake, it makes the Marauder.
