Default Rim/Tire help

Ok, so I finally decided to look and find out the specs of my rims/tires. I have 235/50/ZR18's and I wanted to know how fat of a tire I can go on the rear. I love how STONE's car looks. If you havent seen pics here they are.

I think 305"s but could be wrong! I know there was a thread about tire sizes

what Im really trying to achieve is that meaty, aggressive look from the back--i take it that the first number IE 235/50/18 (235) would be how fat the tire is?
