Default Rear Tire size question

I have been debating on my new tire sizes for a while. I was pretty sure I wanted 255/45-18 front and 285/40-18 rear.. I have 9" front rims and 10" rear. I was wondering if I could do a bit wider/taller on the back? If so what size do/did you use? I presently have nitto 555's and was looking at their G2's for replacements. Thanks
in advance

Why did you want to go taller? Effectively changing your speedo

I don't necessarily want taller, Just wider. If it would be a 1/4 or 1/2" taller I am not going to sweat it. That's what I meant about taller. Sorry for the confusion
