you can also try 245/55/18, OD of 28.61 inches, out by 0.91%, or a 245/60/18, OD of 29.57 inches, out by 2.37%-but your speedo will show slower than actual speed by 2.5 mph, not good.

go to a tire shop, look at the sizes i've thrown @ you, and see what you like. a 50 series side wall, on that wide of a tire is going to be pretty tall, so it may be to your liking.

hope this helped.
