275/45/18 and 285/40/18 have about the same total diameter so you won't even have to re-tune the speedo, plus they will fit fine on 9.5 rims very well.

I believe the max on an 18 x 9.5 is 285 and the min is 255, which is what the GT500's were equiped with, rear and front respectively. I'm currently running 275's all around on 9.5 width rim and wish I had done 255's front/285's rear.
