Default Tires for new rims!

Hey everyone!
I'm about to buy some new rims, and i'm trying to figure out what size tire I should get...<---new rims

<---current

The new wheels measure 18x9 front, 18x10 in back
WHEEL WEIGHT: 9" 26LB - 10" 28LB

WHEEL OFFSET: 9" 38MM - 10" 42MM

BACKSPACE: 9" 6.4" - 10" 7.2"

I currently have 18x9 all the way around and the tires are 255/45/18 (the rims came on the car...not a big fan of them.)

please help me out!!!

Default RE: Tires for new rims!

Stay with the 255/45/18s on the front and go with 285/40/18s on the rear since you are going staggered. Both tires have the same 27" diameter and will look great on your car.
