can g37x coupe run 245/50/18s

I am looking to putting a set of winter tires on my stock rims and have decide on blizzaks. I know that I can get the lm-60s in the stock size but the ws60s are better rated by tire rack and cost almost 50 less a tire. The problem is the ws60s don't come in 225/50/18s and the closest I could find is the 245/50/18s. Will they rub or hit? My G37x coupe is bone stock.

The 245/50's seem a bit taller than normal, 40's a bit on the short side. A better fit would be 245/45-18. Remember though, narrower for snow is better than wider.

What about 235/45/18? That is within 3% of stock size.

I went with 225/50/18 all around for my "winter" setup of Conti DWS. Works great on my oem staggered wheel setup.

They make load but are a hair shorter than normal. Probably be ok with those.
