Will a 235/40/18 tire fit on a 18 x 8 rim? Does it have to be 18 x 8.5 to fit 235?

this is a tire rack "suggested" fittment guide though. TUV approves other sizes
this are the tire sizes that tire rack deems acceptable. in reality, tire stretching (which is the opposite of what you want to do) is ok to do with tires as well. and MANY tires are TUV approved to be stretched.
