Will 245/40-18 fit AWD all around on stock rims?

I don't want to change rims and to me the 225 tires seem a bit small.
Thinking of mounting 245/40 on all 4 rims (obviously wider and with slightly higher profile for the bad roads around here) on AWD GT1.
Does anyone know for sure if they will fit without rubbing, etc.?

I just put 245/40/18's tonight and they fit with 1/2 cm clearance to the strut. BUT these were 18x8.5 rims. I'm not sure how the 8.0 inch rim will affect the sidewall bulge?? There was no problem with rotational clearance at all.
