I would HIGHLY recommend that you buy a second set of 18" front wheels for your Crossfire, and mount another set of 225/40-18 front tires on those, and use that as your rear tires in the winter time.

This will give you better traction in rain and snow in bad weather, and will save the larger rear tires for the summer months, saving you money.

If you were to read your owners manual, in the section under "Starting and Operating", you would see that it recommends this.
