are you sure that both the front AND the rear are 45 height?
I would expect the rear to be 5 less
There's also usually a bit of wiggle room in the width of the tire, meaning
if the spec requires a 235/45, then a 245/40 usually fits too

There's a lot of 911 guys who run 19" on the street and 18" on the track and I don't think they have any ventilation issues

Suggestion on DOT legal track tires:
Michelin Sport Cups
Nitto NT-01
