Stock 295/45-18 = 28.4"

Closest matches are:

275/40-20 = 28.7"
295/40-20 = 29.3"
315/35-20 = 28.7"
285/30-22 = 28.7"

Note of caution: Stock rims are 9.5". Most of the alternative tires above have 10" or greater minimum rim width. Most of the aftermarket wheels are too narrow to meet the minimum spec.

The 315/35's take a 10.5" minimum width.

Another note: most stock speedos read high. So if you are a few % larger in the tire size, the speedo will most likely get more accurate.
