U current sidewall ticknesa is 235*.45=105.75mm, way bigger than ur old tyre. U normally down grade aspect ratio when change to wider tyres. 225*.4=90mm side wall thickness. U should get either 235/40/18 (235*.4=94mm) or 235/35/18 (82.5mm) or 245/35/18 (85.75mm).

If I were u, I will sell the re002, get a set of 245/35/18.

Good luck.
