I would think that tire would be fine. I know I've personally put 245/40/18 's on w/ no problems.

I believe my friend has the previous version of those tires, the HTRZ II, and they're pretty terrible.

Well, here's a more accurate assessment of the tire. The HTRZ III seems to have a pretty good rating.
