i have stock fenders, stance gr+ pro coils, and im at "legal height". aka not very low.

i was thinking 245/40/18 using Nitto NT 555 Extreme Performance. is 40 the proper height for s14's? like will it throw the speedo off?
anyone know a good tire size for me to run with minimal to no stretch? also if you know of a good tire for drifting, that will last a good amount of time (i know its kind of contradictory) because this is my DD.

most of the drifting i do is just hit it and quit it parking lots, though i plan on going to Udrift in LV a couple times a year.
245/40-18 is huge for your cars...look up a tire calculator, punch in the OEM sizing of 205/55-16 and compare the two. Per the tire calculator I use from Miata.net...your speedo will show that you're going slower than what you're really going. At 60 mph, you'd actually be doing 62.

With 18x9.5 +15, you'd have to either run some camber or you'd have to work the fenders. If you're planning on 245 widths, they'll stick out at with no camber on untouched fenders.
