My thoughts were to snag some OEM Ridgeline wheels and use the Continental in the 18 inch size. It's the OEM size for the Ridgeline. I have a friend with them on his LR4 and he has good things to say. They ride a lot quieter than the KO2's I have in my current Lexus which are overkill for the soft-roading I do.

I really wish the Michelin LTX AT/2 came in a size that was easy to get wheels for. I have them on a 2wd van and they continue to amaze me with some of the conditions it's gotten through off road

Just depends on the tire you select. There are quite a few options that are nearly identical in diameter to the factory setup. Nothing to worry about there.

Are you planning a lift up front? I know it's early, so we don't have a clear idea of what is going to fit, but I suspect the 245/75's aren't going to clear at lock. for everything else, I would say that it's more a matter of what particular tire that you like in a given size range and what it weighs/construction than anything.
