About the 245/45R18 size
Large-sedan V/W size with 100 load index. Grand-touring all-seasons dominate; German fitments may need run-flat or OE-marked tires.
The numbers mean: 245 mm section width, sidewall height 45 % of that width, and a 18-inch rim. Overall diameter works out to about 26.7 inches. Any replacement has to match all three, and the load index and speed rating on your door sticker must be met or exceeded. Our guide on reading a tire size walks through it.

What vehicles use 245/45R18 tires?
245/45R18 is original equipment on Nissan Maxima (2009-2014), Acura TLX (2015-2020, V6), Lincoln MKZ (2013-2020), Hyundai Azera (2012-2017), BMW 5 Series (2011-2016, base), Mercedes-Benz E-Class (2017-2023, base), BMW 5 Series (2017-2024, base 18 in), BMW i4 (2022-2024, eDrive40 18 in), Audi A6 (2012-2018, 18 in) and Jaguar XF (2016-2020, base 18 in), among others. Always confirm with the sticker inside your driver's door, because trim levels and wheel packages can change the size.
What is the best 245/45R18 tire?
For most drivers our mid-range pick, the Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus, is the sweet spot of price and tread life. If you keep the vehicle a long time or drive in heavy rain and snow, the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 is worth the extra. On a tight budget the Kumho Ecsta PA51 is a sound choice.
Can I replace just one or two 245/45R18 tires?
On a front- or rear-wheel-drive car, yes: replace in pairs on the same axle and put the newer pair on the rear. On all-wheel-drive vehicles most makers want all four replaced together, or a new tire shaved to match, because a difference in circumference strains the drivetrain.
