i would agree with srt8... but we still would need to account for vehicle, drop, offsets, etc to get a better idea of what size tires will fit a 18x 10.5 and if the tire wheel package will fit on the car.

if your car is not dropped, you would want to go with wider than 275. Wide tires will protect the rims from curb rash. What Im running is 275 but the rims still can be damaged if I hit the curb. So my next tire set will be 285/295.

295/35/18 would fit well. 275/40/18 will be slightly stretched. Be sure to pair it with appropiate-sized fronts.
