It depends on your ride height and backspacing, but either front tire could be made to work. Your rear tires are about 27" tall whereas the 245/40R18 is about 25.7" and the 245/45R18 is about 26.7". I'd probably run the smaller of the two for a litle rake, since that's what looks good to my eye on a '67 Chevelle...either that or run 285/40R18's all around, but I didn't see that as an option.
