if you are not lowering it. 235/45/18, at 26.3", is a little taller than oem and is the max width you can put on the 7.5", so it will have a slight bulge. however, it will fill the gap, provide more overall grip, and have a better ride and impact protection.

if you prefer a less sidewall then 225/45/18(oem size) will work fine and fits slightly better on 7.5"

for spacers i'd go 12.5mm square, or 10mm/12.5mm, or 12.5mm/15mm max. personally i'd keep the front and rear track width close to oem by using 12.5mm square even though it may look better with wider spacer at the rear but do what you think you'd be happiest with.
