I got 245/40/18's on the front 18x9's and 265/35/18's on the back 18x10's.
275's on a 9 inch rim will look too "bubbly" but they might be necessary for the 10.5 inch rims you want.
275's are actually the perfect size for 17x9's.. putting the 245's on them will make them look stretched..

You can stetch tires onto pretty much anything....I've seen a 215 on a 10.5" rim. He had to use lighter fluid to blow the tire onto the rim.

Its not safe, but it can be done.
