235/40 tires?

Anyone have some pics of 235/40/18 tires on stock wheels? Im trying to see what the sidewalls look like on the rims if its going to offer too much curb protection and bow out too much. Thanks guys

Bump for some help

Yea ive been looking into tires and ive heard different things. I saw pictures of 225/45/18 tires and the sidewall just seems to big for me which makes the wheels look smaller. Also the 235/40 tires are closer to stock size which offers less of a change in the speedometer. All i need to see is a few pics of 235/40 on stock wheels.

235/45 sidewalls are going to be taller than 225/45 so your wheels will look even smaller
