Default What size tires

I am picking up a set of 18" Chrome ZO6 wheels this weekend. Right now all 4 are wraped in 245/40/r18 Fusion tires. I think these will be ok on front? In the back this want do. What size tires should I replace them with for looks alone? BTW the rims are all 9.5" Thanks

Im getting these Trav,
They have a great lifetime, aggressive thread and good looks too.
Believe it or not I havent found a better price, I used to think Tire Rack was expensive.

These are for 17's, but im sure 18'' versions wont be much more.

If you dont like those, just go to the home page, click on tires and enter in your size.
Also you said those are 245/40.
Im thinkin you could go 275/40, which is wider.

So will those tires be ok on the front? I think I will get the new KDW2 when they are released for the back.
