Not too many people run 285's on +18 because you have to roll the rear fender. Even 275's come really close depending on how low the car is.

285 is too wide for a +18. Unless you are making some serious power, 285's are not even necessary.

i have the GTS +17/18 offsets and the tires are 255/275. my fenders slightly rub in the rears, so i'm going to have to get those rolled =P

thought, i'd bump this up...

since i'm dropped 2+", i'll have to roll my fenders anyways, can 285 still fit with a aggressive drop? can the 255 in the front even fit with that drop?

no, not 275/30, those are shorter than the front tires. You want 275/35

^ the overall diameter of the 30 series 275 tire is closer to the overall diameter of the 35 series 245 tire.

for example:
245/35-19= 25.8"
275/30-19= 25.6"

but 275/35-19= 26.5"
