Default 18 x 9.5 " Rims with 53mm offset

2002 T/A & drive it approx. 1500 miles// year,
Plan to install a NEW set of 18 x 9.5 " Wheels with a 53mm offset on all.
WILL 285/35/18 work perfect up front with NO issues Or is 275/35 the best fit??
Rears I was hoping for 285/35 as i believe that is the widest I can go on a 9.5" rim?
Suggestions & what is recommended here for my application .

I run 285/40-18 tires on my 18x9.5 wheels. No problem with them what so ever. You should be good with 285/35-18

Did you notice a big change in the speedo reading from before as too how many MPH it is out?
Any ABS wheel sensor problems as to light indicator coming on?
Does it fill the wheel well opening a touch better than the 35 series would?

No i didnt notice a change in the mph. I had no sensors going off. Yes, my 285/40-18 tucks in nice in the rear. It gives my car a nice stance with my eibach lowering springs. A 285/35 should tuck in there nice as well
