Well, you did buy some wheels and tires (and not 255/45/18's) back in June of 2017. The tires are almost 4 years old and by your own words you're still 2.5 years away from driving your car:

US wheel

Anybody ever use this brand? I just bought a set of torque thrust knockoffs on summit for 121 dollars a wheel. That's a lot better than the 600 bucks I was being quoted for custom back spacing American Racing wheels. I went with an 1&x8 with 235/45/18 all around on an 18x8 rim.

There's a lot of difference between a 26.3" tire and a 27" tall tire, not to mention the extra .75" tire section width.
