Nobody even makes tyres in those sizes, or as far as I can tell anyway.
How bad would it be to say use a 245/45/16 as they are actually available.

A good setup on 16x7/16x8 is 205/45R16 front and 225/45R16 rear.Any reason you're after a 245? Not many choices around on 16's in that size.
You're better off with a good 225 like an AD08R.

.I have a MK2 MR2 and am looking to put some new wheels on.
I've been offered a set of 18", they currently have 235/40/18 tyres on but have been told 225/35/18 would fit.
Would that make them acceptable for the front?
